"i got my implant last month on the 1st. so, far it&#039;s been alright. i have noticed i&#039;ve been getting headaches more often and my skin has the occasional breakout. this could all be due to the fact that i just started college though. despite the claims regarding lowered sex drive, i&#039;ve actually experienced a slight increase in my sex drive. i haven&#039;t experienced any weight gain or loss, and my stress level actually seems reduced. i have been having nightmares/vivid dreams  since my implant, they began about a week after insertion. i&#039;m not quite sure if that&#039;s what is causing them though. i&#039;ve always had irregular periods before the implant, and i just began spotting today, a month after insertion. so, i&#039;ll have to wait and see."
