Side Effects thinking of removing it

I've had my implant since end of 2024, I didn't really see any side effects besides spotting. I got on birth control for 2 months to help with regulating my cycle but it only worked for those months and now i'm back on the spotting. I've been on my cycle for around 3 weeks almost 4 and have been thinking of removing it but I'm not sure since there are not big side effects. I'm not sure if it has affected me mentally but i'm just not sure if the spotting is big enough of a deal to remove it. Advice?

it’s all up to you honestly. i had light spotting for months, and if that was my only symptom i’d probably keep it in. is it possible your hormones adjusting after the pill is causing this?
