"i was put on implanon in september 2011 after delivering my second daughter in july 2011. i did not have a period for several months after getting it besides a few days of spotting here and there. within one month of getting implanon i started getting serious headaches, and in february i began passing out randomly, i had low blood pressure, low heart rate, and was diagnosed with pseudo tumor cerebri. i had to get a lumbar puncture to relieve the pressure. a few days later i had to get a blood patch, because i got a spinal headache.  i ended up needing a second lumbar puncture in aug 2012. in nov 2012 i was also diagnosed with pcos which caused acne, hair growth, painful periods, and infertility. i was told that implanon caused these."
