Hello,

Welcome to healthcaremagic.com!

I really appreciate your concern. Spotting and irregular bleeding could be due to the side effect of the implant itself. If a lady with similar symptoms comes to my clinic I would ask her about the type and name of implant. If the symptoms are persistent and bleeding is heavy than implant can be removed.
Hope my answer has solved your query. Take Care.

Thank you.

Best Regards.
Dr. Manan
