"i had implanon inserted in july &#039;12. it has been just about six months, and i am probably looking to have it removed. the insertion was fine- i thought it was painful but i didn&#039;t find it unbearable. at first, i was so happy with not having my period. but since thanksgiving - over a month and a half - i have been bleeding! it is light, but constant, sometimes brown, sometimes red. i have never had acne like i have experienced with implanon as well. i would be able to deal with the acne if i wasn&#039;t bleeding for weeks.
