Birth Control
"I&#039;ve had the Implanon for almost 3 years now and I plan on putting another one in as this one is removed. They inserted the Implanon when I was on my period and I haven&#039;t had a period since (yes!) I&#039;m on a lot of acne medicine already so if it did increase acne I didn&#039;t notice. I have also gained weight (8lbs) but that could be due to the whole &quot;freshman fifteen&quot; it&#039;s hard to tell. I&#039;ve recently lost some weight and it has been really, really hard. But again I have no idea if it is from the Implanon. All around though I really like the Implanon. I don&#039;t have to worry about taking a pill or getting a shot. It&#039;s put in (which is not very painful, only feel the numbing shot) and that&#039;s it for 3 years. I love it!"
