i had the implanon got it in july07. just had it taking out because my hair was comin out in the back and side. i had to get all my hair cut off. now i am back on da depo shot i never had any problems with da shot.With the implanon i had long spotting that last 4 two weeks, mood swing that made me yell at my son over lil things, headaches when the spotting was coming. it took my dr. ten mins to remove it.i thought it would be good for me since i got layoff at that time, but i need my hair. another thing my hair on my head was comin out. but the hair on my legs and underarms would grow back so fast.. PLEASE DO SOME RESEARCH BEFORE GETTIN IT..
i was on the shot for 4 years too, and when i got off of it, it took my period 9 months to come back.. i also did ortho, but didnt like it.. i am now on yaz, and for the past two days have had servere emotional break downs... i dnt know what to try next... good luck with the implant though
