birth control
"I was a bit hesitant with getting Implanon because of all the negative reviews I've read. My main fear was weight gain. But after a few weeks I have had NO SIDE EFFECTS. NONE! I haven't bled or spotted but it isn't the time of the month yet. No increase in appetite or cravings and hence no unexplainable weight gain. 

The insertion process was a bit painful, but nothing unbearable but depends on your pain tolerance of course. The area is sore for a few days and bruising lasted about 2 weeks for me. All in all it is a great contraceptive method especially if you forget or can't bear taking the pill everyday! I must emphasize, please don't be frightened by all the negative reviews. Every female is different!"
