birth control
"I wanted something that I didn't have to remember to take everyday since I was going off to college. From the start I had irregular bleeding. I would get my regular period, three days of no bleeding, then another two week "period" then six weeks without a period. As month passed my doctor assured me it would subside by the 9 month mark. It actually never stopped for me so I had it removed exactly one year after having it inserted and my periods returned to normal however ONE month after having it removed I experienced severe abdominal pains that forced me to go to the hospital, only to find out that I now how very large and painful ovarian cysts. I'm almost 100 percent sure it's because of Nexplanon because I never had a history of it."
