Birth Control
"A friend of mine suggested Implanon since she had such a great experience. I got mine in July of 2011. I started it while on my period and it lasted for about two weeks with mild bleeding. After that I didn&#039;t have a period until about December/January. At that point I was spotting irregularly. Each month since, I&#039;ve been getting heavier and more painful periods. Sometimes they even come 3 weeks after the last. I&#039;ve also noticed increased facial/body hair, greasy skin and hair, weight gain, and yeast infections around the time of my period. I&#039;ve decided that the side effects are too much to handle and I&#039;m planning on getting the Implanon removed."
