Question: Contraception worries?? please help!!?
march 2010 i had the implant (implanon) inserted as im crap with remembering pills lol. i had some light bleeding in the first 6 weeks then it stopped completly!! i went on a diet and in the last 12 months have lost 5 stone!!! then out of the blue i start bleeding and have been for the last 10 days. Is it possible my implant is less effective becuase of the weight loss?????

Answers:

You are now in a different weight range than you were when you got the implant. You are getting a different dose. You need to talk to your doctor about how much hormone you are getting, it may be affecting your body and your cycle.



As I'm sure your doctor explained, you can have irregular bleeding with the implant so your situation isn't that strange. And weight loss alone messes with your periods. I don't think that you will be any less protected by losing weight. Obviously I cannot guarantee that though so I am sure your doctor will be happy to advise you with something like this over the phone. Most doctors can arrange to call you back when they are free.



...i have found that the best contraceptive ( and safest used for centuries across many cultures ) is anal sex.
