"i&#039;ve had the implanon since may 2010. it was a quick &amp; easy insertion, just left me a tiny bruise &amp; a little scar that i don&#039;t even notice. i had a period after the insertion and now i have my period about every 5 or 6 months. i&#039;ve had no weight gain, actually i&#039;m losing weight. no acne or any hormonal changes. i&#039;ve used everything from the pill to the iud and the implanon has given me the best results."
