"i got it implanted about 9 months ago and my period is exactly opposite from a normal period. i get about one week off from bleeding every month! i have an extremely high sex drive, lost/gained no weight at all, and haven&#039;t noticed any changes in my hair growth/loss. i cry and had mood swings but i&#039;m not sure if that is just me or the hormones because i have always been sensitive! every one is different but i really like this birth control method and i would love it if i didn&#039;t bleed every two seconds. it always me to live my life and stay not pregnant until i am ready."
