Birth Control
"I had the Implanon inserted on the 20/12/2010 the procedure wasn&#039;t too painful considering you&#039;re given local anesthetic on the area of your arm. I felt a slight sting (like a wasp/bee sting). I was on the first day of my period when it was inserted. The day after my period stopped however roughly a week later, it came on again and I had a period for 3 weeks.
Once my period had stopped I didn&#039;t have another period until the 17/03/2011. I&#039;m still on and not too pleased. This is a known side effect within the first 6 months-1 year.  I&#039;ve had no other side effects. No weight gain, acne, illness, aches and pains etc. So other than the random bleeding, I&#039;m very happy with my implant."
