I have been on the pill since I was 16 (apart for a few years when I was in baby-making mode) and have had no discernible side effects to date.
The implant contraceptive is another hormonal bending drug and for some women this works very well. This form of contraceptive will stop your periods though 20% of women will experience continual vaginal bleeding so it is not suitable for everyone. The implant should not be taken by erm well-proportioned women or those who have a history of weight fluctuation. As with any implant there is a risk of rejection by the body. The only other problem is that there is no data available regarding long term side effects. Unless my Gynaecologist advises me to the contrary, I will not be changing my method of contraception. I do not have confidence in the implant method, I do not want to be surgically sterilised, neither do I want my husband to have the snip. Condoms/Caps are just too ghastly and ruin spontaneity in sex. If I have to come off the pill then I'll probably get fitted with an IUD.
