"i&#039;ve had this since may 2015 and i&#039;m over it! 2 weeks after it was inserted, had a period that never ended until august! it varies in how heavy the spotting was but it was never heavy, but enough to constantly have to wear a liner. since then, i&#039;ve had spotting that lasts roughly 2 weeks every 2 months! my face breaks out so bad, proactive and clearasil doesn&#039;t even work. i&#039;ve gained 20 pounds since it was put in and it&#039;s only january! i thought it was just my eating habits but i don&#039;t eat more than i did before it was inserted. haven&#039;t gotten pregnant, so i guess there&#039;s a plus.."
