"ive had the implanon in now for just 4 months. i have gained almost 2 stone and still going! none of my &quot;pre implanon&quot; clothes fit me!!! size uk10 to 14 in 4 months!? i have extremely low self esteem now due to this. i genuinely hate myself thats how low i feel. no money to purchase my unwanted bigger wardrobe! in fact i put on less weight being pregnant! im actually eating healthier and walking more then i was before. i&#039;m due to have it taken out very soon i cant wait. i get random heavy as hell bleeding which are very painful that i&#039;m crouching over at work in front of customers!!! oh yes it&#039;s a very effective contraception but only because you turn completely mental case and bleed all the time. what a turn on eh. don&#039;t recommend"
