Birth Control
"I was 17 when I got this put in, the insertion process was completely fine;the anaesthetic felt a bit like a really odd dull sting going up and down my arm, but not noticeably painful at all. Felt my skin tugging when the implant went in but again it didn&#039;t hurt.  After I got it, I had a couple of months of really odd periods-- it started with random day (or even couple-of-hour) long spotting or really light flow in no sort of cycle, then became very heavy long-lasting periods every fortnight or so. However, they changed again and now I haven&#039;t had a period in a good few months, and this has been the longest stage of all of them. It hasn&#039;t quite been a year yet but it seems to have settled down like this. I have no regrets about getting it!"
