A Period After 6 Years Without One... Really?!

[unknown54678997 50]

Warning...may be TMI ... I've not had a period for 6 years. The first 5 years I had an IUD and in the past 7 mth I've had an implanon inserted in my arm. Both of these devices stopped my period....until now.... I'm 19 days post op and got my period 2 days ago...Unlucky, strange or normal considering what my body has been through?

It is very normal. I have a IUD and don't get my period either how ever I did have one after surgery but that has been it for the past 5 months. I was thinking as I lost weight and my hormones start to change that I might start getting one again.

Thank you for your reply. Its always comforting to know that others experienced the same side effects.
