"i think everyone is different with their experiences with this product...with that said i love it! i have had it for about 2 months now and i have only experienced one period that lasted 2 weeks. i never thought it would end but it did and i haven&#039;t had one since. i like not having to take a pill because i am the busy and forgetful type. i still do have a scar where they inserted it but it&#039;s discrete. no weight gain and no noticed change in skin and i love that."
