birth control
"I had my implanon inserted March 2011. I like the IDEA of the implanon, but HATE the side effects. The initial insertion was painless. No swelling, little brusing, no bleeding from the site. I've been super moody, mean almost! I've had menstrual bleeding for 11-21 days (at the longest) a month, muscle aches, ABSOLUTELY no sex drive (which is a complete 180 to before the Implanon) and I've actually been caught yelling at my 1 year old. This implant is good in that you don't have to think about taking a birth control pill everyday, but it shouldn't change the person you used to be. I'm scheduling to have mine removed shortly after Christmas."
