So I just started to have a period a day or two ago. I am on Implanon birth control arm implant. I have had it for a year now. I thought I had completely stopped having a period, since I have not had anything for almost 5 months now. I do have sex, but we use a condom every time and he pulls out. I occasionally have very light spotting. This time it is a lot heavier. I have gone through a couple super sized tampons. It is a bright red color and I have cramping. I did take pregnancy tests and they all came back negative. Is it possible I could ve had a miscarriage without knowing I was pregnant or is it just a period?
Dear member, Thanks for writing to healthcare magic. The implanon act prolonged supression of the endometrium. This may sometimes cause prolonged heavy bleeding. You were not pregnant. Try tranexamic acid 500mg thrice a day for 3 days. Thanks Dr Bhagyashree
