Me to. There's not alot of information out there for girls who are losing weight and wondering if it's from the implanon. IT IS POSSIBLE. I am getting mine removed today.

I'm sick of the on and off acne, NO period for more than a year, horrible pains and knots in my back due to no period, crazy mood swings and the personality change.

I suggest don't get the bar ladies. The only thing good about having a metal foreign object in your arm, is to prevent a baby - and there's tonnes of alternatives.

I'm 18 & weigh 45kg, I can't wait to get the bar out and have my old body back.

I went from 175 to 250 as well 175 was a great weight for me but 250 is over the top excessive implanon sucks other than no period

When I got my first Implanon I noticed weight loss and after 2 years with it I went from 220 lbs to 135. I also didn't have my period for a year and a half. I'm on my 3rd Implanon now.

I am 16, In September last year I had the Implanon rod inserted, and it did exactly what it was supposed to do - stopped periods, etc. However, I have gained an insane amount of weight (25 - 30 kg) I was a size 10-12 last year, and now I borderline 14-16. I exercised three times a week, two intense hour long cardio work outs with a personal trainer and 30 minute walk/jog with a dog, I had barely changed my diet, i ate like i had for years - like any teenager, I ate unhealthy from time to time - and yet, despite all efforts, lost no weight, instead; gained weight. It's over a year later, I am getting it taken out. It may work for some people but the side effects are not worth it for me personally.

Hi, I have now been on the implant for about 3 months now and I have never felt so bad about myself than I do now. I have gained 15 pounds already (went from 113-128) and I am always crying. I feel very depressed and ever since I got it in, things with my boyfriend and I have gone downhill. I feel like I am always hungry. I started eating healthier and working out but nothing seems to be working. I think I want to get it removed. This bc is very effective but I'm not sure if it's worth it.

It's the bc. I am 34, weigh 108lbs before the implant. In a year I've gain so much weight; everyone kept telling me I'm getting older but I know my body (weights always been less than 115 lbs) and I know it's the implant. Planning on getting it remove soon.
