"the first three months of having the implant in was an emotional roller coaster. after i learned how to control my emotions life was beat again. i&#039;ve had a huge increase in my sex drive, which seems to be rare. overall it works great! i don&#039;t have to take a pill daily or even think about getting pregnant. my period has been sporadic. one month i&#039;ll have a two day period the next i&#039;ll have a week long. almost a year in and my period only lasts 2 days. acne isn&#039;t terrible. i do cry at least once a month, before i cried only a few times each year. everyone has their own experiences though, mine turned out to be good."
