A member asked:

Implanon implant birth control making my vagina have odors. what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely unrelated: Vaginal odor is often caused by an imbalance of vaginal bacteria, but it can be due to other vaginal infections, stds, a forgotten tampon, or other causes. These causes are typically unrelated to your birth control method. See your clinician to check it out.
