birth control
"I have been on Implanon for just over 6 months. As far as the insertion goes, very minimal pain. The slight bruising disappeared in a few days. I have a minute scar, but I always say I would take the scar over a child any day.  Because I am one of those individuals who worries like crazy, I took a pregnancy test monthly while on the pill. Being on Implanon is such a relief. On the negative side, I was blessed with a fairly clear complexion before Implanon. However, after Implanon I have had a GREAT increase in acne. I have also had my period every day for the last 3 months straight. Most days heavy enough for a tampon. I love the security of Implanon, however the bleeding has become irritating. I would suggest looking at intrauterine devices as well."
