Brief Answer:
About 3 months

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

It takes about 3 months for periods to start after removal of implanon.

I suggest you wait as initial few periods will be irregular and it might take totally about 6 months for periods to regularize.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Regards
