What Are The Chances To Get Pregnant With Birth Control Implants?
Hello Ive been on birth control implanon for close to 3 years, due to have it out in October. I ve been having unprotected sex and been having feelings like im pregnant ive taken at home tests but they come out negative. Ive read quite afew stories online about others getting pregnant on it and some of them their tests came out negative as well. Im also wondering how do I Know if it was inserted correctly. I mean I can feel it but it takes a bit to find it as well as when I do find it I get minor twinges sent up and down my arm and sometimes shoot into my neck. Please help Thank you

if u want to be sure about ur pregnancy then u can go for pathology urine test or serum hcg test or a scan .then u will get a sure result.every contraceptive has a failure rate. in ur scan u may know whether ur divice is in proper place or not.and if u r feeling then its not in proper place.
