I had no idea that Implanon was linked to depression until very recently, and I had mine removed after a 3-year stint around two years ago. I wish I had known, because it certainly would have explained why my already existing depression got so much worse over the 3 years I had Implanon.
Now I'm stumped as to what contraception to use - I've struggled with my weight since I was 11 and so don't want to use the Pill (besides, I am the WORST at remembering to take a tablet at a certain time each day, so knowing my luck I'd fall pregnant again), apparently hormone injections are no good, and now Implanon is linked to depression...
Gah, condoms? That's about all I know of that is left! And I'm sure most of us are aware of just how unreliable they are.
