"i got the implanon inserted in late november of last year, everything was fine for 8 months. i was able to lose weight just fine (with diet and exercise). i did not experience moodiness or any of the side effects i read about online. i did have the occasional spotting but not an actual period, that is until four weeks ago, i started bleeding, a week went by and it slowed down and just when it seemed to be over i started again. it&#039;s been like this for over a month and i&#039;m really considering getting it removed. at first i really loved it, but i&#039;m tired of the bleeding."
