birth control
"I have had Implanon for two and a half years. The first three months were bliss: no period, no weight gain. Around four months I started to get acne, something I never had in high school and my periods came randomly. Some months I bled for 3 weeks on and off. Other months I would have 2 four day periods about a week apart. I never knew when I would start or stop. At two years I decided the irregular periods were too much and went to my gynecologist. She prescribed me low doses of estrogen. Since starting the estrogen my period have become more regular. All in all Implanon has done it's job; I am not and have never been pregnant, and the side effects are worth being kid-free for three years."
