Lower back pain

Hi all,

I’ve had my implant since last year in August, and I finished my “period” almost two and a half weeks ago, the last 3 days I’ve had uncomfortable lower back and abdominal pain and I’m so confused? This usually only happens when I’m about to start bleeding or when there’s brown discharge, but there’s nothing! I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if I should be concerned?

10 months in

Hi guys! I’ve had the nexplanon since August of 2025, and I’m not sure if it’s normal to feel more symptoms this far in. For example I’ve had my “period” every month it could last 3 days or 20 days with some brown discharge and spotting after. But recently I’ve been feeling more cramps and lower back pain along with headaches, I’m not sure if this is all normal to happen 10 months in, I’ve also been feeling more cold and tired, it also increased my anxiety about pregnancy ( I know it’s a very effective birth control method) and I test every month or if I feel anxious for reassurance. But just wondering how peoples bodies reacted this far in and if it’s all normal or if I should get checked!

Thanks all!
