[|Human|] Ive been using then Implant for 7 years now and never had a period, but recently Ive noticed my breasts have grown, Ive gained weight, and started a period yesterday. My current implant has only been in for under a year (maybe 8 months, maybe less) is it possible its stopped working?
[|AI|]  Hi, The effect of hormones on the body varies with the weight in general; as the body weight increases the demand for hormone grows and side effects ensue. This may have happened to you with the new implant; yet, the effectiveness needs to be checked as you have developed symptoms soon after the insertion. Please ask your specialist to check for the position, get a sonogram to look for any cysts in the ovary and to exclude other pelvic causes. If all is well, it means that you could be in normal menstruation with the implant on. Hope this helps.
