"i have had mt implant since july 2013. 

pros:

i lost 50 lbs.

i&#039;m not pregnant.

my cycle is predictable. 

i have fewer heavy days.

my periods are less crampy.

cons:

my period has gone from a week to 2 full weeks plus a few days of spotting.

my iron is subsequently low. low like 10.9.  

i am a bit moody.



overall, i&#039;m a bit ambivalent. i like the not worrying about getting pregnant. the cycle issues are inconvenient at most.  most women i&#039;ve talked to have  no cycle so it seems to react at a very personal level."
