"do not get this!!! i mean if you&#039;re okay with having unpredictable periods and non stop bleeding, then be my guest. my rod was inserted mar. 2015, it&#039;s now feb. 2016, and i&#039;m ready to get it removed. i got it because at the time, i just had a baby and wasn&#039;t planning on getting pregnant any time soon. the first month i bled for two weeks, but it was light. the next four months, nothing. once sep., rolled around the unpredictable/non stop bleeding began. my sex drive was extremely low, and still is. i&#039;m so over this birth control and will be getting it out asap! btw, i didn&#039;t get pregnant, so i guess it&#039;s good for something."
