anyone with Implanon bc implant?

I got this put in last fall, thinking it would be a cheaper option for me rather than the patch. (I can't take pills successfully). Much to my dismay, I ended up paying almost $1000 for it and will only save money if it is in for all three years. I will save the last 3 months.

Anyway, since having it in I have gained 20lbs. and have been having a difficult time getting any off. I feel bad most days with bouts of dizziness and nausea, not to mention it has wreaked havoc on my cycle and my sex life. I'm constantly tired and hungry and ache everywhere. And no, I'm not pregnant. Without going into too many details, I basically hate it. (Oh, and I had an allergic reaction to it in the first two months

I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced issues with this. If the implant is causing all these symptoms, I want it out. But since I'm still paying for it, I don't want to have it removed if something else may be going on.

I don't have it, but I searched "implanon reviews" and found this for you:

thanks. Seems as though some people have no problems at all and others have some similar to mine.

Is this something that you have talked to your doctor about yet? I think that would be a place to start and see if they are simmilar symptoms that other have, and maybe the doctor will have an easy fix for it?:bigsmile:
I don't have on, I have an IUD, and I it
Goodluck
