Birth Control
"I got Implanon inserted a month and a day ago and I couldn&#039;t be more excited!  I was a little nervous as I&#039;ve never been on a progestin only birth control method (always been on combination hormones), but so far, so great!  The procedure was super easy.  I did have a bruise that lasted about 2-3 weeks and my period that I had when I got it implanted lasted about 2 weeks as well (which made me nervous I was going to be a constant bleeder on this!), but since then, nothing!  It looks like I will be one of the lucky few to not have any bleeding on this birth control method.  But, even if I do, the idea of not having to think about birth control for 3 years (I always forgot pills), is so exciting to me, I don&#039;t think I&#039;ll care!"
