Hi I think you should consult a gynecologist for complete examination. It can be a side effect of implant and you may need removal if migraine is there. Pain in legs can be an indication of clotting or thrombotic disorders. Get it evaluated properly. Brown discharge can be due to some vaginal infection or due to implant also. Get a pelvic examination done by a gynecologist to rule out any cervical pathology or infections. You may need some antibiotic and antifungal drugs orally as well as vaginal to treat that. Hope it helps.
