"i highly suggest against this birth control. i was on the pill, but was annoyed at taking them every day so i switched to implanon. worst idea ever. i gained over 30 pounds in 5 months, have no sex drive, extreme abdominal pains, periods for months (months) straight, very moody, and lethargic all the time. i tried going to the gym for a while but the weight kept gaining (without any diet change). i went from 120lbs to now 150lbs. not ok!! oh, i forgot about acne. yeah, a ton of it that will not go away no matter what you do. do yourself a favor and do not get this birthcontrol. i finally get it out on monday and i&#039;m switching back to the pill!"
