Irregular Bleeding Since Implanon Inserted, Bleeding After Intercourse. What Is The Cause ?

a year and halve ago I had the implanon inserted into my arm. Before that I used contraceptive tablets and my menstrual cycle was normal, but since the implanon I have irregular bleeding or no bleeding at all. About 3 months ago I started to have spot bleeding after intercourse, which was getting worse. So I went to have a pap smear done today and immediately started bleeding as soon as dr tried to do a swab. She also said that the cervix does not look normal. She did send the blood sample away as well as the smear for further testings. the results will take 10 days. Can you please tell me what the main causes for this could be. I am 33 years old, had a baby in 2010 and my last pap smear was a year and halve ago, which was normal.

hello,
condition is definitely unrelated to your implanon. however spotting after intercourse could be due to infection of your reproductive tract, pre-malignant conditions of cervix. be cool, relaxed as both the conditions can be treated. wait for result and get treated.

wish you good health
