I got the nexplanon implant in my arm exactly 2 months ago. Before that, my period was irregular (I only got it every 4 months-ish). I haven't experienced any side effects from the implant at all until now; no bleeding or cramps or nausea or period symptoms whatsoever. The last three days, however, I've noticed a constant, brown, thin vaginal discharge.
Should I be concerned or see my doctor? It just seems odd that I've had zero symptoms until now.
Thank you I look forward to some answers!
Why do I have random brown discharge after nexplanon implant?

Hey there!
I had my implanon in for 34 months. So nearing the end!
Starting June 4th, I got constant brown/black spotting. No cramping or anything like that. I had implanon removed on July 5 th and still getting the spotting so I'd reckon my hormones are just a bit of mess, i said it to the doctor when I was getting implanon removed yesterday and she said it was nothing to worry about. Hope this helps!
