Removed Implant. Waiting For Period? Normal? Should I Contact Doctor?
I removed my implant the 20th of february this year. I've been using implants for the past 6 years and haven't had my period during that time, but now it's time for a baby so I would like everything to get back to normal as soon as possible. How long should I wait for my period to come before I contact my GP? How long is it normal to wait?

Thanks for using HCM
As you were on implant, usually cycles will return to normal with in 3 to 6 months of removing implant.Implant causes atrophy of endometrium so there will be reduced bleeding or absence of bleeding. So you can wait for few months, consult gynecologist for further examination
Hope i have answered query, wish you a good health
