birth control
"I got this implant about 10 months ago as birth control. First of all, my doctor told me it was nonhormonal because that's what I want (it has hormones. she lied.). I've always had irregular periods, but after nexplanon they became constant and heavy. I get my period at a minimum of 3 weeks up max 3 months, and have at the most a week in between. My blood would be black sometimes- I don't think that's healthy.. My doctor refused to take it out and said I needed to give it more time, but I think this isn't working for me and from what I've read it does similar to other people. It does its job all right- I can't have a kid when I'm on my period all the time."
