i see that others on this site did not have the best experience with implanon. i'm on it right now and i never experienced any of the side effects presented her, although i did have one problem. implanon is a progesterone ONLY drug. my doctor inserted implanon at the wrong time in my cycle, making my periods... CRAZY. i was initially told that most patients didn't even experience a period. after i had what seemed like a TWO MONTH period, i went to the doctor. the doctor explained that it was not a two month period but that, since the above (progesterone only, inserted at wrong time of cycle) had been thrown into the mix together, i was not making enough estrogen which was causing the progesterone in implanon to basically, wear away the lining of my uterus. the estrogen builds it up, but when you're not making any estrogen, you cant really do that. so my doctors put me on Femcon FE, an oral contraceptive from the same company. the estrogen in the drug regulates the hormones. it has worked so far but the estrogen is making me a WHOLE DIFFERENT PERSON. other than that, i'm doing okay with it
