Does Implanon Cause Dizziness, Fatigue And Constipation?
Hi, I’m on the Implanon and have just had a UTI. Although I’ve been having symptoms I would consider as pregnancy symptoms. Larger breasts, dry nipples, dizziness, fatigue, constipation and just today some light spotting (after not having my period from the four months of having the Implanon). Are these normal side affects of the rod or could I be pregnant. And if so how far into a pregnancy can termination be an option.
