"okay, i had this thing put in my arm 9 months ago. i&#039;ve also had a very very heavy period for 9 months. after 5 months of non-stop bleeding, i asked my doctor to take it out. she refused and put me on estrogen pills. 4 months later and i&#039;m still bleeding. i have no energy, depressed, i can&#039;t lose weight at all even when working out &amp; eating healthy. horrible, horrible experience."
