"wow! reading all the comments, make me realise i am not alone. had mine since may the 5th. small side effects, sore breasts, a bit tired. 3 weeks with no bleeding then since the 27 of may, no stop. my period used to be very heaving, 7 to 8 days straight, but with the implant i wear only small pads. i can&#039;t complain that much about the bleeding, no major side effect. we are all different and i am going to give it more chance. i used to wear big pad during my period you could see the shape on my trousers, but now it light, and no baby. i think i could give it 6 months trial."
