Hello,

Incontinence of urine is not a common side effect of Implanon. However, it is possible as it may lead to the relaxation of your urethral sphincter.

One way of overcoming this problem would be to avoid drinking fluids especially alcohol or caffeinated drinks in the 3 hours before your bed time and evacuating your bladder prior to sleep.

There are medicines which may help you if this simple method does not help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
