Birth Control
"I wanted to share my positive experience. I first had mine inserted Aug 2013 at my University&#039;s nurse&#039;s office. The numbing shot really stung, but I didn&#039;t feel the incision or insertion at all. I had bruising on my arm for a few days. For a few weeks after my arm would ache. I have a small, barely-there scar from the incision (looks like a beauty mark/mole). I consistently had periods every other month for 3-5 days. I&#039;ve gained no weight, had no acne break outs, and have not gotten pregnant. I was using b/c pills for over a year before switching to this method. I think it&#039;s a more hassle-free method; don&#039;t have to worry about human error. I will be getting another one inserted in Aug since my 3 years is about to be up."
