"implanon is the way to go. it lasts three years so there&#039;s no worries about taking pills everyday. i had mine on september 2009. i had lots of spotting but eventually stopped and still have no side effects. i sometimes forget its in my arm which is awesome that i get to be worry free. i still get my period every month but i&#039;m not going to be a baby about it because what matters is that i&#039;m not pregnant."
