"this birth control was painless to in. in the first 9 months i did spot a lot. at first my periods were normal but they became very light but lasted a long time. at one point i had light spotting everyday for a month. it was driving me insane but i decided to wait and thankfully the bleeding completely stopped. before i got the implant i did have very bad cramping, i experienced very light to zero cramping. i like having the implant but i do sometimes feel like it makes my mind foggy, it might be me but i wasn&#039;t like this before the implant. i most likely won&#039;t get another placed in right away when i have to get it removed."
