Has Any One Used Implanon?
Posted: 12-21-07 00:47am

I have been looking at diffrent forms of birthcontrol, im on the mini pill now, but lately ive been forgeting to take it so i want to switch to one that you dont have to worry about so much.
Ive decided i would like to get on either Implanon, or an IUD.

Has anyone ever taken Implanon? I was woundering how much it cost, and you have done with it. Aslo do you know if it will break easily? Im worried it might break if someone grabs my arm to hard or something.
Thanks for any help you can give me!

Ya i do, i looked at the website and it said it was okay to uses even if you wanted kids later on, it said that right after you take it out you can become pregnant

I thought about the ring, but from everyone ive talked to it falls out during sex, that would get annoying.

my mom was on the shot, and she went really suicidal, so im afraid to get on that one.
im thinking i might just stick to the pill, the patch my mom would deffntly notice, and the iud and implant just are scary lol

What are you on? if your on anything.

Btw thanks for helping!

you can put the patch in several place im not sure if you wanna take the chance lol but just thought id throw that out there

the ring is a pretty good option. if it falls out all yahave to do is wash it off and put it back in Smile
id get on the ring if i wasnt so freaked out LOL

im getting on birth control on the 2nd. i just had a daughter 3 weeks ago so i definately dont want another baby for a while LOL
im going to get on the patch or the femecon fe chewable pill because i have a *thing* with swallowing

I decided when i go in next month to get my next set of pills, im gunna ask about it, and i think im going to get the implanon, and see if i like it or not would be way easyer to hide, and i wont have to worry about it
