birth control
"I have had my Implanon for 2 1/2 months now and I've had minimal side effects. I get slight acne on my forehead and my breasts grew a little. No weight gain, mood changes, or cramping during my period. However, my period itself is a bit of a problem. Since insertion, I've been having my period every other week and it lasts about 6 or 7 days. I can hardly tell I'm having them, but it interferes with my sex life (boyfriend is not a fan) and I go through a lot of tampons. I've also noticed that I spot or fully start my period after sex sometimes. However, I haven't had the Implanon for very long, so I'm going to give it more time for the hormones to balance out."
