What Causes Missed Periods When On Implanon?

I m on the implanon BC but have missed two periods along with having sore nipples and swollen boobs, around my nipples have bumps that are not usually there. I have been on this BC for 2 and a half years now and ALWAYS had my period on time usually , sometimes late but never missed for 2 months. I have taken 2 test and both were negative. What could be my answer to why I have all these symptoms but still getting negative results?
