"i had implanon for 2 years and at first it was great. i never had a period and i surely didn&#039;t get pregnant. so for that i liked implanon. but the side effect where not worth it. i ended up gaining weight which is something i can deal with but i started to get really bad headaches and it started affecting my vision and my daily activities. i was tired all the time i slept for 15 hrs a day. i couldn&#039;t function at all and it started to take a toll on my family and kids. they wanted their mommy and i just couldn&#039;t be there like i should have. i just took it out last week and i feel like a new person. i haven&#039;t had a headache. i feel so active and i can now live."
