Ok honey, relax. Yes, there can be medical reasons for a libido problem like hormone levels and whatnot, but there are a lot of psychological things that can attribute as well as your level of physical activity. I have a few questions for you...

Did you have depression before you had the Implanon? Hormonal birth control can contribute to depression in some women.
Did you have libido problems before you had the depression problems?
Do you exercise?
Do you have any hobbies or activities that you do "just for you"?

I feel like your doctor may be trying to breeze over the Implanon possibly causing the drop in your libido. Maybe it's not a direct side effect, but if it has contributed to your depression, and THAT has contributed to the loss of your libido, then it is still a secondary side effect of the Implanon.

However, if you had depression issues before the implant was put in, then there are probably other issues at play that are causing you to be depressed that need to be dealt with. This may not be the implant's fault. By the way that you write, you seem to speak about anxiety, panic attacks and depression in very familiar terms, so I am getting the impression that this may be a chronic issue for you which has been exacerbated by the implant.

I feel like the libido issue has brought to the surface some deeper issues in your relationship and your life, for example that you don't seem to feel supported by your DH or feel like you can talk to him about your feelings. These things are incredibly important. The lack of sex is just the visible manifestation of all the little problems that are boiling under the surface in your life that must be dealt with to make you happier and healthier overall, which should in turn increase your libido.

Your H probably thinks he's helping you by trying to make you take the blood draw less seriously. Like distracting a child who doesn't want to get a shot, rather then feeding into her/his fears by agreeing that it's really scary.

If you feel supported by him in general, then have you told him that his attitude about this is making it worse? Sometimes you have to specifically ask for what you want. Men aren't mind readers, and sometimes their different ways of dealing with things can be misinterpreted by us.

Libido is a funny old thing, and very few couples have theirs in sync so don't beat yourself up about it.

How was it in the beginning of your relationship (and I don't mean the first couple of months, more about a year in or so)?

If you think back to the last couple of times you were in the mood, can you remember what you'd been doing directly beforehand?

If you're only going to bed when you're really tired, or he's only instigating things first thing in the morning when your mind is on getting up & going with the day then as a couple you perhaps need to agree to actually carve out some time. If you have a 'date night' once a week with no phonecalls, kids, TV etc then you might find you're in the mood more.
