Do Premenstrual Symptoms Indicate Pregnancy ?

I m 19 and on the imlanon birth control .I have a almost 2year old daughter.I ve been feeling extremely bloated,dizzy,nauseated,crampy...basically having what I think are period symptoms with no period.I know implanon can cause a missed period but it s always either made me have a light period,heavy period or 2 in one month.like last month I had two.one of which ran into this month around the time I should have started.what do you think this is?I doubt I m pregnant ,everytime I felt like I was in the past,tests would come back negative.I mean I think if I took a test and it was positive i d be ok since my husband s job is going good with great pay.idk.any advice or someone with the same experience

Hi
Implanon has very similar side effects.Its all due to hormone imbalance.
If you miss a period then take a test.Positive test is unlikely but rarely does failure occur.In case of a negative test,dont worry.It might take a few cycles before your periods stabilise.The irregularity is a side effect sometimes difficult to deal with but should normalise soon.
