Is it normal to have bleeding after 3 weeks of implanon insertion ?
I got the implanon inserted nearly 3 weeks ago during the 3rd day of my period. Since the middle of last week, I have had spotting (I am not sure if this is my period or not as it was never this light and dark - this would mean I have had my period twice in a month). Is this normal?
