Explanon aka Implanon was the the right choice for me in the beginning, but 4 days after insertion I noticed I had a few bug bites on my legs, I went to bed thinking nothing of it, and woke up to about 50 bumps, itchy as hell, I realized I was getting hives! Another day passed and they spread to my bum and elbows, another day passed and I was in misery. My elbows, knees, and hands were the worst areas. Hot to the touch, swollen, aching joints, itching, it was torturous. I woke up crying and bawling from the pain. I was determined to stick it out, still convinced I could adjust to it but it became unbearable! My chest started to feel like I had weights resting on top of me and it hurt to breathe. I'm getting it removed, and it's only been just over a week. It's was a really terrible experience, I also experienced headaches and back pain like other have reported. I recommend immediate removal for anyone experiencing hives. It seems it only gets worse from then on out
