Can I be pregnant even though I have a contraceptive implant?

Hello to you, I'm Céline 19 years old sorry for the inconvenience, but I have a little thing that is crumpling my mind.
I've been on a contraceptive implant for 1 year now. I recently had unprotected sex for two weeks now, I did a test which turned out to be negative, but I found that my breasts have grown a lot and hurt to the touch, I feel nauseous and I urinate a lot. Is it possible that I am pregnant?!

I understand that the situation you are describing may cause concern. However, a contraceptive implant is a very good method of contraception. Its effectiveness is estimated at 99.5%. If you have taken a pregnancy test that has given a negative result, this is the first step in ruling out pregnancy.

The symptoms you describe can have various causes, not necessarily related to pregnancy. Enlarged and painful breasts can be the result of hormonal changes, and a contraceptive implant can affect the body's hormonal balance. Nausea can be caused by a variety of factors, such as stress, changes in diet, or other health factors. More frequent urination can also be associated with a variety of factors, including changes in drinking habits, urinary tract infections, etc.

If you are concerned about this situation, it is always a good idea to consult a doctor who can give you more personalized advice. If you do not have the opportunity to take advantage of the advice, I am attaching a link to the online teleconsultation:
