What Causes Bleeding After Having Implanon Implant?

I got the implanon five days ago and just today started bleeding quite a lot. Is this a period or just random spotting? I was hoping that the implanon will stop my periods all together, so I m wondering if this bleeding will be how I will bleed for the rest of the time I have the implanon.

Hello
Thank you for asking the question.
You had inserted implanon. Most common side effect of inserting it is change in menstual bleeding pattern.
Sometimes bleeding is heavy, sometimes light or sometimes spotting only.
You get the heavy bleeding. So wait for few day and bleeding still continue then consult a doctor.
Hope this will helpful to you.
