"my first implant was amazing with no bleeding or problems really. only time my hormones were up the spout was when i would have actually been due a period. 
my second implant however is a total different ball game, i&#039;ve had random heavy painful periods lasting for 2-3 weeks, and also gained nearly 2 stone in weight which i have tried every possible way to get rid off but can&#039;t.
i&#039;m having it removed next week and going back to the pill with the advice of my nurse and with the hope i can shift the weight gain. 
i constantly feel miserable and have no sex drive what so ever.
the pill is less convenient as you don&#039;t even need to think about the implant once it is in, but i can&#039;t live feeling how i do!"
