"I have been on Implanon for 9 months now.  I feel very confident in its ability to prevent pregnancy.  I have had no weight gain, very little acne, no cramps or bloating, and no mood swings.  However, I have been on my period for 9 months.  In addition to the bleeding, I also have a very low sex drive, vaginal dryness, and it also drys out my eyes irritating my contact lenses.  I will be getting my Implanon removed next month due to the abnormal bleeding I've had.  I feel very protected against pregnancy on Implanon, there is no "missing a pill" or "taking a pill late" that used to worry me.  Having the Implanon inserted didn't hurt at all, the doctor will numb your arm before.  I did have some bruising for about a week after wards."
