Birth Control
"I have had the Implanon for almost a year now. I have heard that there is always a lot of weight gain but I didn&#039;t mind that because I had a lot of trouble keeping weight on for a long time. All in all this is the most emotionally stable I&#039;ve felt out of all the birth control methods I&#039;ve tried, and it hasn&#039;t had much effect on my sex drive,  but I&#039;m not super active anyway so I don&#039;t see any difference as I&#039;m sure I would if I were in a long term relationship.  I originally got it because I have a rare medical condition that causes metabolic episodes when I have my period that had put me in the hospital on numerous occasions plus I had just started to become sexually active.  I am very satisfied!"
