"I just wanted to post another side to this I'm 19 years old and I had the Implanon in for two years. I had horrible mood swings, hot flashes, weight gain, etc. I didn't get a period, I loved that. There are other side effects though you're more likely to catch virus' or have a sore throat all the time. Headaches that are beyond crippling I went to the hospital for them. I had it removed not long ago to find out I may need help to have a child if I ever want one in the near future. I think everyone is different who receives it but really read over the side effects. "
