What Causes Nausea,persistent Vaginal Bleeding And Breast Soreness While On Implant?

Is it possible to get pregnant on the implant and have a false negative result?I had my daughter in October and had the implant put in in December. I have been exclusively breast feeding my daughter from day one. Starting in May, I started having constant, persistent bleeding that hasn t stopped yet. I also am nauseous a lot, my breasts are extremely sore (sometimes it s hard to nurse my daughter because it hurts so bad), I am always exhausted even though nothing has changed in my routine, I m gaining weight (only in my lower abdomine; haven t been able to button most pants this week), dizzy, and feeling flutters low in my belly too. I took a couple tests (dollar store cheapies) one negative, one inconclusive. I ve just heard that implanon can give false negatives...please help!

Hi,

Implanon is very effective, even up to 99 percent according to many studies. On starting implanon, you might not see regular periods for a few months. You might see irregular spotting, lighter periods than you are used to or a heavier flow, a longer or shorter period, or no periods at all for the first month or so.

Your body needs to adjust and regularise the hormone levels. You can wait and watch the bleeding pattern in the next few cycles which will regularise with time.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
