Hi,
Ovulation usually occurs within 6 weeks after removal of the implant. The hormone leaves the body within a week after removal. It is the best form of contraception available with a failure rate of only 0.05%. You seem to be experiencing hormonal withdrawal and you should be getting your period any time now. You may consult your doctor for further investigations if you do not get a period within a week. Good luck.
