"i had implanon put in march 2010.  no problems in the beginning; still had my period only lighter, with some spotting.  now i&#039;ve been spotting for the past 3 weeks and all i want to do it eat.  my breasts are tender and swollen.  sex drive - not there.  i&#039;m really considering having the implanon removed and just rely on condoms.  unfortunately i can&#039;t take the pill because it has estrogen and i&#039;ve had a history of a blood clots after a knee surgery."
