"i just had my implanon removed today after having it for a little over a year and a half. the only good thing about the implanon was the convenience of it; i never had to worry about taking a pill or constantly refilling a prescription. however, the implanon made me more moody, emotional, depressed, and anxiety ridden. i spotted for 6 months straight after i had it put in and then would randomly get my period. i gained 25lbs. the only good thing about implanon was piece of mind. but the side effects were not worth it."
