"i will start off by saying that everyone reacts differently to implanon. i had mine inserted a little less than a year ago. the first few months were what i was told to expect, spotting on and off. at the three month mark i started bleeding badly for two months straight, took a week break then started bleeding again. for the last three months this has calmed down some, however i have started breaking out like a teen all over again. i have also noticed some weight gain and lots of hair loss. good news? well it does the job of keeping you un-pregnant."
