Hi,

Implanon has inbuilt long acting hormone progesterone. Progesterone does show irregular spotting, menstruation off and on. You seem to have same side effect. This usually lessens after few months. Please don't worry. You need to follow good genital hygiene these days in order to avoid infection.

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

Regards,
