One of the side effects on implanon can be pretty constant periods.....
A few of the side effects of having sex without a condom are:
H.i.v /aids
Herpes
Syphillis
Gonnoreah
Genital warts
Hepatitis
Clamydia

Nice.

Hi OP,

I suggest you contact the woman and your GP. We can't give medical advice on boards.
