birth control
"I got this implant in September of 2015. The reason that I got it was because I wanted to regulate my hormones better (I had really bad period symptoms) and I am too forgetful to do the pill. I thought it was great at first, recommended it to everyone. Now that I'm farther down the line, I hate it. I was pleased that I didn't bleed for almost half a year, but when my periods came back, they came back worse. I now bleed for 3-4 weeks at a time, with 3 weeks in between. It is awful. I also get really bloated and have sensitive breasts, which are symptoms that I never had in the past. This thing definitely prevents pregnancy because every time I am in the position to have sex, I can't because I am bleeding.  I plan on having it removed soon."
