"i&#039;ve had the implanon for a little over a year now. i love it! i have tried every birth control under the sun. the pill, the patch, the ring, and i had managed to find a way to forget, mess up, or skip each one of them. the implanon has given me so much more freedom. the only side effects i&#039;ve had were a few months where i would bleed a little each day, but after about 6 months i haven&#039;t had another period. i haven&#039;t gained any weight and any moodiness was probably something i would have experienced without all the hormones. i recommend it."
