Hello I had the implant fitted in aprill 2013 and before that was on the injection. when on the injection i had no bleeding what so ever then come december 2013 till now i'v been bleeding almost every 2 weeks. the last week i'v had really heavy bleeding but i thought it was 'old bloody' as it was really dark brown/red. but would be big clots and really bad cramps. i was on for 9 days stright which is bizar for me. I stoped on the tuesday and then this morning had horific cramps thought nothing of it and then checked and had 'old blood' again. I am ausming its the stress of uni but does anyone have an awnsers?

Hi Anon,
Welcome to EmpowHER. If you are referring to birth control implants. The most common side effects are, irregular menstrual bleeding, depression, weight gain, ache, breast pain, headache and many others. You need to discuss with your doctor the symptoms you are experiencing. This birth control treatment might not be right for you. Hope this was helpful?
Best,
Daisy
