"i have had the implanon in since septemmber of 2008. i have loved it i am gettting it taken out in two days a little scared because i don&#039;t know how i am going to react to it not being in but i want another baby so here we go. i have noticed moodiness and irritability. i have gained 25 to 30 pounds but i thought it was all from my eating habits. after reading some of these posts i am beginning to wonder if its from the implanon. i haven&#039;t bleed like i used to and that is a plus. i hope people don&#039;t let the negative reviews scare them from trying this form of birth control because it really is a blessing and has so many advantages."
