What Are The Advantages and Disadvantages In Using Implanon?

The most well known advantages and disadvantages when using the Implanon vary between each individual. 

Some of the most common disadvantages that a person might experience are irregular periods or even prolonged bleeding, acne, headaches, abdominal pain, and even weight gain. These are some of the most reported side effects that women have noticed.

One advantage that some women have also reported is that they do not have a menstrual period while they are using the Implanon.

 
If your implant was to become damaged or broken this could cause you to experience complications. When the device cannot be felt then you must have an ultrasound performed. It might require that you have the implant removed. If so, you will have to undergo surgery with local or even general anesthesia. 

However, Implanon is a very safe and even highly effective method of birth control. One of the best advantages is that if you are a woman who cannot have an estrogen-based form of birth control then this is perfect.

 
Once the implant has been removed it has been reported that you can get pregnant so do not worry if you would like to have a family in the future, it is possible as long as you are fertile.

The Implanon is very discreet and private so there is no embarrassment that you will have to worry about. Most women state that you cannot even see it.

If you just had a baby and are breastfeeding the Implanon can still be used.
