Nexplanon Implant

Hi,

I have had the nexplanon implant since August 2012, it was due to come out this August 2016. After trying to get a doctor's appointment for a whole year I finally got one 18 days after expiry. (also no reminder from the doctors) me and my husband had unprotected sex 16 days after expiry. The nurse won't put another implant in my arm for another 2 weeks due to pregnancy. I already have 2 sons (10 and 6) so think I've done my bit, had very bad pregnancies. Could I be pregnant or will the hormones from nexplanon still be in my system? The nurse has now put me on a contraceptive pill to tie me over until my next appointment when I have to provide a urine sample. I'm really scared and have argued loads with my husband. As he still wants intercourse but I'm not sure. Think it's put me off for good.

March 5th was my Nexplanon official expiration date. I did not have sex during the time of its expiration. March 10th I finally had my appointment for a new one. My period is all over the place and when I got my first implant on birth control in 2010 I was told it starts working immediately. No one has told me different. March 11, 2017 I had intercourse to completion. This is my 3rd implant. The first one, no periods. The next one I was completely irregular. This all being said.. I have yet to have a period since February. Could I be pregnant as of the day after intercourse?
