"i had implanon placed in november of 2009. it was great until september 2010. i started having a period after not having one since january 2010 and to this day it has not stopped. i went to a new gynecologist and he said that the progestrin level in the implanon was stopping my body from producing estrogen. he gave me a prescription of estrogen but it really didn&#039;t help. not to mention, in the past year that i have been having these problems, i have become depressed, anxious, moody, and my patience has worn very very thin with not only my fiance and daughter, but with people in general. unfortunately, i have lost my insurance and it is quite expensive to have this removed."
