most helpful answer you are on borrowed time. unless you want to get pregnant your implanon is likely waning in effectiveness. you may have some residual hormones but the fact that you are developing ovarian cysts may be an indication that you need to have it removed and a new one implanted (can be done at the same time) if you choose. either way the old one has to be removed. use another form of birth control until you deal with this issue. thank you. the stupid doctor i went to told me is was not the cause. but i believed it to be. but he will not take my old one out until next month. i have been waiting since june last year. time for a new doc
my implanon expired may 15 2014 and i still have it in and its jan. 2015. why has it not lose effectiveness.? . i haven't had anything weird happen. everything is still the same from when i first got it. only thing is i have developed and ovarian cyst . but need to mention i'm only 127lbs. does that have anything to do with it?
