See your doctor: Probably the Implanon will continue to work. It may have settled into the tissue if it was recently implanted. The shift may have occurred because of mild trauma. Concerns include implant rupture and infection. See your doctor for evaluation of your Implanon now. You may want to discuss other contraceptive choices as well.
