Implanon report #SELF-3661
Female patient reported the following Implanon side effect(s):itching, redness & swelling
I had Implanon inserted one week ago. At first it was bruised, but I figured that was just from the injection...no big deal. But as the bruising went away the area where the Implanon is began to itch a little and has gotten progreessively worse over the past couple of days. I am trying to schedule an appt with my doctor to see what\'s going on, but I don\'tknow if I can wait another two days. i may go to the ER...I just want the itching to STOP!!
