Thread: Contraceptive implant

    Contraceptive implant

    Hi everyone.
    New here, but have suffered with health anxiety for about 15 yrs now. But im slightly different where i DONT go to the docs & have avoidence problems with health. If i think i feel a lump i avoid it & get in a state. Anyway i had some counselling a few urs back because before that i was at the docs every week atleast! the counselling turned me the other way. I am petrified of doctors.
    Does anyone have the contraceptive implant in their arm and if so have you had any weird symptoms? Ive had it about 7 months now & mt moods are all over the place. I have spotting all the time, i didnt get anything for the first 5 months it was great! Why has it started now?
    Any advice would be gratefully received on it.

    Hi there

    I don't know much about it to be honest but wanted to welcome you aboard and hopefully someone else will come along with some advice on it.

    Don't know much about implants either, but I do know that a while back, when I was on the pill, I got spotting when I needed a higher dose pill. I know you don't like docs, but I do think you need to go back and get it sorted out.

    Hi folks. yes to be honest hes alright this gp, and i dont mind going there if its a non illness thing if that makes sense. He fitted this implant. I am going to go see him about maybe using something different.
    Thanks for your advice.
