"i love implanon. i was very scared about the potential side effects that i was informed of by my doctor. i had implanon inserted a year ago and the only side effect i have experienced is acne. i never (even as a teenager) had acne, only the occasional pimple every few months, however with implanon i%u2019m always breaking out. it is such a convenient form of birth control that i can live with the acne."
