"i have had implanon in for about a month, i enjoy it because i don&#039;t have to remember to protect myself with the pill. however i have been bleeding since it was put in, not heavy bleeding just annoyed with having to wear a tampon everyday, but i have 3 kids and cannot afford another! i have not gained any weight but i also exercise 4 to 5 times a week! it&#039;s a great birth control so far! i definitely recommend it to woman who already have kids (life gets hectic and you tend to forget to take pills, etc.)."
