Birth Control
"I decided to get the implant after I stopped using the depo shot. The worst part of the insertion is the numbing shot, it felt as if my arm was on fire but that went away quick. The healing process isn&#039;t bad at all. There will be scaring but it&#039;s not bad either. I&#039;ve had the implant for 2 years now, and my complaint list is minimal, yes it prevents pregnancy but the irregular periods and spotting are very annoying because you never know when it&#039;s going to happen, it&#039;s always a suprise and very inconvenient. But if you can look past the spotting and irregular periods that come and go as they please, this is the BC for you. I will be sticking it out for another year just for the fact of its great for preventing pregnancy, but changing BC soon"
