"i had the implant put in early december 2016 (after a lot of changes had been made to both the medication and the implant) and i have had nothing but a positive experience. i had the implant put in on the third day of my period, it went on as normal. i didn&#039;t have another period until january, and it lasted longer than normal and i have had spotting since then but nothing bad and it is not accompanied by any normal pms symptoms so it&#039;s pretty much wearing a liner everyday just in case. slight mood changes but that&#039;s with any bc, skin has changed (occasional breakouts my entire life), still have a sex drive, and no weight gain. i will say that i had a very normal cycle to start with and no previous problems! it makes life worry-free."
