Not unusual: Irregular bleeding the first few months is not uncommon. It should get better with time.

Implanon: Hi, in first 6-12 months you could have irregular bleeding and also heavier bleeding, it should become lighter in 6-12 months, if your bleeding is too heavy you should see your GYN doctor.
