I am bleeding after my Jadelle implant. How to stop it?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Having continuous menstrual bleeding for two weeks after getting the Jadelle contraceptive implant can feel exhausting and alarming.

This type of irregular or prolonged bleeding is actually one of the most common side effects during the first few months after the implant is inserted.

For many women, the body gradually adjusts to the implant, and the bleeding often settles on its own over time. At this stage, it usually does not indicate anything dangerous, although it can understandably affect your comfort and your daily life.

For treatment, doctors often prescribe short courses of medications such as combined oral contraceptive pills or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, for example, Mefenamic acid or Ibuprofen, to help reduce and control the bleeding.

The exact choice of medication depends on your medical history, body weight, blood pressure, and whether you have any medical conditions that make the use of estrogen unsafe.

That is why it is important to see a healthcare provider before starting any medication on your own. The healthcare provider can safely prescribe the treatment that works best for you and also check that there are no other underlying causes for the bleeding.

In the meantime, try to keep track of your bleeding pattern and watch for signs of significant blood loss, such as soaking menstrual pads every hour, feeling dizzy, or experiencing fatigue.

You should seek urgent medical care if the bleeding becomes very heavy or is associated with any concerning symptoms.

Most often, with a little medical support and patience, the bleeding settles on its own over time. The Jadelle contraceptive implant continues to provide effective protection against pregnancy even when irregular bleeding occurs.

I hope this information helps you.

Thank you.
