"i got the implant in november of 2014. the first few months were fine, period was lighter and not as often, but now almost a year later i have gained a bunch of weight, i have started to have horrible breakouts on my face, neck, and back, my cramps are horrible and i have probably had two weeks off of bleeding since the start of july (it&#039;s now september) i&#039;m going to talk to my doctor but my man and i are over this implant. i want it gone and don&#039;t think i would recommend it."
