birth control
"I got the Implanon birth control because I didn't want to worry about taking a pill everyday. It only hurt a little to have it put in, but really a few hours of pain for three years of peace of mind is a small price to pay.  I've had Implanon for almost the full three years and here are my pros and cons.  The pros: I don't have to remember to take a pill everyday, I can have sex anytime and not worry about pregnancy, I NEVER have cramps anymore, my periods are very light and only last a few days.  The cons: my sex drive has gone down to zero (which if you never want to have sex you're not going to get pregnant) my periods only come every couple of months (there was a span of time where I actually went seven months without a period)."
