birth control
"I have 5 children & am 42 years old. My partner has had a vasectomy. I've never had a regular period - and have no interest in getting one now. So - I do not want a period.  After my son was born 6 years ago - I went on the Mirena IUD - NO period was awesome & lasted 5 years.  Last year I changed to the Implanon - I have had NO period and of course no pregnancy.  But, in the past 6 months have gained 20 lbs!  My hair & skin are extremely oily. Acne is horrible. and I fear I've had many of the other symptoms and just never thought Implanon could be a reason for moods, headaches, sore breasts, extreme weight gain and acne. I think it's time to remove but I don't want a period."
