"so i got this implant on the 3/31, it was quick &amp; painless (even though i was totally freaking out lol) done within 3 mins. i bruise very easily so i def got a nice big bruise. it just went away 3 days ago. so far the birth control is doing its job. the only complaint i have is that i&#039;ve had headaches 2-3 times a day randomly. they come and go never last longer than like 10-15 mins. i just started my period today and i must say the cramps i got made me feel like i was in labor. they were so bad i started crying at work like a baby. but after about an hour they dimmed down a little. hopefully this period won&#039;t last long because it is pretty heavy in my opinion at least heavier than what i&#039;m use to."
