Has anyone here got an implanon (the birth control bar that goes in your arm)? I've had it for two years and I've always struggled with mild acne while being on it however I've never had perfect skin.. But the last 6 weeks or so my face has just broke out like crazy. I haven't made any changes so the only thing I could think of was the bar.. Anyone else have the same problem? 😢

Everyone has different hormones and the dosage changes as time goes on. Talk to your doctor though for a sure answer

I'm on my second Implanon and have not experience any brake outs that I would associate with it. However, like everyone said above, everyone different and so the best thing to do is talk with your doctor.

Hmm, I spoke to my doctor and she doesn't think my implanon has caused it. I'm feeling very frustrated haha. Thanks ladies 😘
