I had my implant removed at the beginning of October and my boyfriend has a low sperm count. How much will this effect the chances of me getting pregnant and how long will the effect of the implant stay in my body for??

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
After removal of the implant, your fertility should come back within a month’s time. You can hope to get pregnant in next 3-6 months. Repeat semen analysis for your partner. Get tests done to rule out obstructive causes (treatable causes) for the low sperm count. Have foods rich in zinc to have good quality and maturity of sperms and eggs.
Take care.
