The number and density of the implants do not always match with the amount or severity of pain. Even a single or a few implants can cause daily severe debilitating pain or severe pain during the menstrual cycle. ➡️It’s hard to know how many people have it as many women either don’t have symptoms or don’t get diagnosed.
