Question
Hi, my name is Britani. Late Dec. Last year I had the implanon inserted, it made my periods awkward. Well, just recently they quit! I was happy! And my doctor had told me once they may stop but then I just kept eating, sleeping, grumpy etc. I felt like that pregnant with my daughter. I told my husband just to be sure stop by the store and get a HPT. It's positive! I know implanon can cause an eptopic pregnancy. My question is, how accurate is having a normal pregnancy with implanon?
I would recommend going to a good doctor that specializes in life. You can find a good doctor from getting a referral from a pregnancy resource center. To find one, go to http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP. Tell them your story and that you would like a referral. Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and let me know how things are going.
