Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

Usually, birth control hormonal implant has 99% efficacy i.e. it is effective in 99% of cases.

No contraceptive measures give 100percent protection yet.

So as per your history, in case of a delayed period, I would suggest you do a urine pregnancy test after 7 days.

It should be confirmed by beta-HCG level and obstetrics ultrasound SOS after a Gynecologist consultation.

So It would be better to use condoms/any other contraceptive which gives extra protection.

Hope I have answered your query...
Let me know if I can assist you further.
