Brief Answer:
The chances of pregnancy are less.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us about it.
I can understand your concern, though.
As such there is no interaction between citalopram with progestin Etonorgesterol (Implanon), then the chances of getting you pregnant are less.
Only if your implant is not working properly because of any reason and you will get pregnant on it, you should discontinue your pregnancy because citalopram causing lung and heart defect in babies.
So kindly consult your treating doctor and get yourself examined and rule out pregnancy.
Hope it is useful, feel free to ask more.
