A member asked:

I have been spotting for almost 10 days now, not enough for a panty liner. i recently got an implanon contraceptive. i am certain im not pregnant.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Takes a while: sometimes a few weeks for the uterine lining to adjust to the implant hormones, then bleeding should subside. Very light in future.
