"i have to say every birth control effects everyone differently. for me the implant was amazing at first it&#039;s good for three years no daily pill to take nothing to worry about. at first i didn&#039;t have regular periods until 3 months when i did start bleeding i would bleed more heavily, until this past june i started bleeding for 3 weeks at a time having awful breakouts, mood swings. i recently got the implant removed because this form of birth control kills your sex drive and seriously who wants to be on their period for weeks at a time. i will say that this birth control is very effective ! i was on it for a year and 4 months and did not get prego! i say try it out because this form of birth control may be for you or it might not be."
