hello all! new to the board and with my first question !
Ive had implanon in now for nearly 2 years and was wondering if you can still fall pregnant with this method of birth control? my weight has increased rapidly of the past year also and at the moment i havent had any bleeding for about 7 weeks now which is the longest i have ever gone in my life without bleeding except for pregnancy (i have 3 children)i was wondering if i could be pregnant?
i have heard rumors that the implant can decrease it effectivness in heavier women?
or is there any other factors than can decrease the effectivness of implanon?
am worried could be pregnant can any give any advice?
(this is the first time ive used implanon)

TIA !
