Birth Control
"I had my implanon inserted March 2011. I like the IDEA of the implanon, but HATE the side effects. The initial insertion was painless. No swelling, little brusing, no bleeding from the site. I&#039;ve been super moody, mean almost! I&#039;ve had menstrual bleeding for 11-21 days (at the longest) a month, muscle aches, ABSOLUTELY no sex drive (which is a complete 180 to before the Implanon) and I&#039;ve actually been caught yelling at my 1 year old. This implant is good in that you don&#039;t have to think about taking a birth control pill everyday, but it shouldn&#039;t change the person you used to be. I&#039;m scheduling to have mine removed shortly after Christmas."
