"i got my implanton on july 1st 15. i am so far thrilled with it. i was on the second day of my period when i went in to get my mirena. due to complications with insertion (ouch) i did not receive the mirena. my doc recommended the implanton, i had done little research about it but opted to get the implant. she numbed the injection site and it was in, with slight discomfort, in seconds. the reason i gave a 9 is because the next day i felt overwhelmed with emotions and was very light headed and tired. besides that it completely stopped my period that day and i havent spotted or bled at all. i have a 2 month old daughter and knowing i am safe for 3 years is super reassuring. i would recommend this form of bc!"
