"i got the implant at the beginning of june and it&#039;s now october. after i got it i had a period that lasted three days, stopped for two days, and came back for another three. since then i haven&#039;t had a period or spotted at all. at first i felt like i had no sex drive at all, which i didn&#039;t know was a side effect, but now my sex drive is back. the only side effect i have really noticed is i get more acne, but i&#039;d rather have acne than a baby!"
