"i&#039;ve been on implanon since april 2013...for the entire first year i had absolutely no period which was great! about 2 months ago i got a very heavy period. i&#039;ve been having light bleeding ever since and it&#039;s driving me nuts, but overall this is the best method of birth control for me. and i&#039;ve tried everything! side effects are different for everyone and it can always be taken out if it doesn&#039;t work for you. i&#039;d say if you&#039;re forgetful or just prefer a form of birth control that requires no effort don&#039;t hesitate to give this a try i love it!"
