Is Dark Brown Discharge With Clots Normal Towards End Of Implanon Implant?
Hi there :) I am coming towards the end of my 3 years of having an implanon implant. For the duration of these 3 years I have not had a single period but over the past week or so I have started having a dark brown discharge with clots. Is this normal? Also, I am not sure whether my lack of period is due to having the implanon or due to me being underweight and stressed. Thanks :)

Hello,
It is quite normal not to get any periods while you are on implant. If you had the implant done for 3 years and you see dark brown spotting, visit ER and get physically examined to know if the implant is at the right place or needs removal.
Stay out of stress, no worries.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
