"i have had implanon for three years now and have an appointment next week to have it removed. i&#039;m looking forward to it! reasons being: since implanon my sex drive is gone..and i&#039;m only 24 years old! this has cause bad problems with my marriage and has nearly caused divorce on more than one occasion. the past 3 years have been horrible with this side effect. after doing research i have found that this may be permanent even after implanon being removed. another side effect that i have is severe depression. i have struggled with depression before implanon but it has made it worse. i have also experienced fatigue. the only good thing about implanon is the fact it has kept me from getting pregnant."
