I've had the implanon for 6 months and don't get my period on it. recently my nipples have become very tender. what could be the cause? weight gain?

Common side effect: Implanon can cause breast tenderness. It does go away with time. Monitor your weight because Implanon can cause weight gain which can aggravate the breast tenderness.
