HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Her ability to conceive would return to its normal state if she chooses to remove the implanon. It would not have a permanent effect on her fertility.
In terms of the clotting, implanon is a progesin only contraceptive . These are associated with a much lower risk of clot formation compared to estrogen contained contraception.
She may want to discuss her concerns with her doctor
I hope this helps
