What Causes Stomach Bloating And Sensitive Nipples While On Implanon?

I have had the Implanon for just over a year now, I have had no troubles with it at all. However the last 2 weeks I have been feeling bloated, craving all foods, smelling everything and almost gagging on certain smells and having incredibly sensitive nipples. I am sexually active with the same person and taken a pregnancy test, it has come up negative. but is there still a chance that I am pregnant?

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. With your recent symptoms, it is possible that you could be pregnant or are in the premenstrual phase. Home pregnancy test reads well three weeks after ovulation and for an earlier and better clarification, you should get an estimation of the serum beta-hCG titres ten days after your last intercourse. A trans-vaginal sonogram done three weeks after the last intercourse also helps to detect the cause. Weight changes, stress, infections and use of certain medications can create hormone disturbances and affect the contraception. Hope this helps.
