Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Implanon is know to have high after fertility ... after expiery of the devise . The conception being possible as early as within 3 months of expiery.
You had been planning for baby since March... hoping for conception every month since then.... but disappointed due to failure to conceive.
This is in my view due to hormonal imbalance caused by psy chological stress/anxiety ( due to strong desire to conceive)
Please stop being anxious... be cool &wait for natural conception upti few months.
If periods remain irregular or there is no conception... get a gynecologist's advise for excluding/finding other causes of menstrual irregularity &get treated as per need.
Thanks.
