Birth Control
"I got Implanon three years ago and just got it taken out today. Insertion was very easy and very quick, it did not hurt, they numb your arm. I would say that the only thing I did not care for with the Implanon was the somewhat occasional spotting. I never really got a regular period which was nice but I did need to carry a panty liner with me for just in case. I would say that I got spotting about every other month and it would last anywhere from three to six days. I know that some people have said that they had weight gain and so did I, however I went from 88 pounds to 96 pounds (I am only 5ft tall) so I needed to gain that weight, I was unhealthy. I have always had acne and oily skin so it is hard to say if it effected that."
