"i would like to say this is a very good birth control and it works! i have had it for three years in june and i have to get it out because at the time it was 3 years guess it went up to four, which is cool. i would just like to say i have gained lots of weight since i have got it but i was a little under weight 100lb. i have gained about 35 pounds since then! which i don&#039;t mind but if i wasn&#039;t watching my weight i would be scared to see what i would weigh! so keep that in the back of your mind. at first i had non-stop bleeding which lasted a long time but eventually went away.  so overall its a great bc."
