"i got the implant in november. bleeding was expected. i&#039;ts now june and i am always bleeding. i&#039;ve been sticking it out for 8 months now hoping my body will cope with the new medicine. looks like its not happening. i just got done bleeding for almost a week 3 days ago, went to the bathroom because of cramps and of course there was blood. 
as far as it actually protecting against pregnancy i wouldn&#039;t know because my significant other passed away a few months after a minor procedure. this thing sucks. i would never recommend it to anyone."
