Implanon help!

Have had the implanon rod in my arm for 6 months now..
It has taken away ALL my sex drive, so much so that my bf thinks I don't find him sexually attractive anymore :(
Has anyone got any info? I want to get it removed but have heard these side effects still last?

I had the same thing happen to me as well while I was on the Implanon. I was one crazy person on that thing, and I am still dealing with the side effects today. I only had it in for 3 months. Right after I had it taken out, my husband and I got pregnant with twins... I lost the first baby 5 weeks into the pregnancy. I am planning my sons funeral right now for this upcoming Saturday. I was 20 weeks pregnant and had a still birth. If I were you, I would get the Implanon removed! Nothing good comes from it, I had every bad side effect possible from that stupid thing! Please, take my advice. The Implanon is something I would not recommend to anyone!!!!! Ever!!!!!!
