Birth Control
"I have been on Implanon for nine months now. First of all, let me say the the insertion was almost completely painless and very quick. I was a little sore for a few days after, and bruised, but nothing major. The first six months I will admit, I was ovely emotional (crying at everything on television, etc.), and also suffered mood swings along with heightened irritability. Those symptoms leveled off after six months. Since then, the only other noticeable side effect I have encountered is weight gain--I have gained a total of about ten pounds, but that also seems to have leveled off. I have had a total of three periods so far while on Implanon, and all three have been normal-light. I am very happy and would definitely recommend this product."
