Birth Control
"I&#039;m eighteen years old and I had my Implanon inserted in the middle of April, 2010. The insertion didn&#039;t hurt at all (just a little sting from the numbing medicine). After insertion, I had a regular monthly cycle then bled for three months straight. I thought I was off the hook after that when I had a month of no bleeding. I&#039;ve been bleeding brown ever since with only a couple-day breaks in between. I still have my sex drive (increasingly so) but I&#039;ve gotten a little acne and I&#039;ve gained about fifteen pounds. I&#039;m still trying to be optimistic but my boyfriend and I are both ready for the bleeding to stop."
