should I worry
got the implanon two weeks ago. It was put in mid cycle. I am now late. Should I worry?
Still no sign of period, however I am having other symptoms that I did not find linked to implanon: lack of appitite, weakness( like i'm really tired w/out being tired) and lack of focus. HAS ANY ONE HAD SIMILAR EXPERIENCES???
so she had a period 2 weeks before then took the plan b pills then started bleeding again.. is it normal for this to happen and have the period again?

Hello,
Chances of pregnancy due to birth control failure (since it was put midcycle) are always there. If you miss your periods, then you can test 1 week- 10 days after you miss your periods or you can test for pregnancy by a highly sensitive pregnancy test 10 days post ovulation with a sensitive ( 20 - 25 mIU ) pregnancy test. Also then I would suggest you to get your serum HCG levels estimated since this is more specific than urine for pregnancy tests. The HCG (it is a hormone) levels rise only in pregnancy and its presence will confirm the status of your pregnancy.
I hope it helps. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
