Could I Be Pregnant While I'm On Implanon?
Hi, I am 25 years old, 5'1, and 170 pounds. I have a history of cervical cancer. I was wanting to know could I be pregnant while on implanon. I have had it for 20 months. Recently I have been experiencing pregnancy symptoms and really sore aches in my left arm where implanon is inserted.

Hello!
Thanks for your query.
Implanon has the highest efficacy among available contraceptive methods.
Using implanon is safe for up to 2 years.
Experiencing pregnancy symptoms may be form fear of being pregnant or may be symptoms of premenstrual syndrome.
Sore aches in your left arm may be from implanon, if in the insertion place of implanon you see redness,if not pain may be form another cause.
Take care
