"i would recommend this to anyone. i first had implanol at 19, back in 2009. i had a two week long period and that was the last period i&#039;ve had. i&#039;m now 24 and coming to the end of my second implant and i can honestly say i have had no bad side effects. when i was on the pill i came out in terrible acne, i had none with this implant. i haven&#039;t had any weight gain but i&#039;ve always been around 150-160 pounds. 
i&#039;m living in the uk so for me (thanks to our amazing heathcare) this product is free, but i would pay for it if i had to. you have it changed once every three years and you&#039;re sorted until next time or you decide to have a little one. fab."
