"i had implanon inserted in august 2010.  i&#039;ve been pretty impressed.  i was horrible at taking the pill (didn&#039;t always happen every day, much less at the same time) so just the fact that i don&#039;t have to remember anything for three is enough right there!  i usually have my period for a couple of days every other month; i usually don&#039;t know when it is coming which is annoying, but it&#039;s always light so not too much trouble.  i haven&#039;t had any weight gain but my breasts have gotten a bit smaller.  no unusual mood swings either.  i would recommend implanon to anyone who wants a no-hassle birth-control method.  oh, also, implanon was only $45 for the copay and device."
