I had it in for about 6 months and I bleed the whole time. I finally had it removed and they had to actually cut it out my arm because it had moved to another location. Another thing my arm stayed sore and I kept headaches with it. Everyone is different.
Hi, I have just had the implanon removed after having it in for 2.5 years. I had a lot of problems with it, I gained weight, became extremely moody (even more than my normal pms) and my periods were non existent at first and then irregular. My doctor who removed it recently has said that she will not insert them much unless requested as she has had a lot of negative feedback. Hope this helps
