Why Do I Have Irregular Periods After Removing Implanon?
I had my Implanon removed about two months ago and I have had completely irregular periods ever since. It started about two weeks after removal and went for about five days, then three weeks later another that lasted seven days and then a week after that another.

Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. In the current scenario, your abnormal menstrual pattern is more likely due to the withdrawal effect of the hormones since the Implanon is removed. If the disturbance does not settle in a month or two you need to have further evaluation. You can use styptics to control the bleeding. Please maintain a healthy weight and a healthy diet. You may need a trans-vaginal/pelvic sonogram and a course of hormones to treat further. Hope this helps.
