"i&#039;m wondering if this birth control is only extremely effective because it makes completely undesirable to your partner. i had this implanted while still breastfeeding. my doctor was optimistic that i wouldn&#039;t bleed because i wasn&#039;t having any period at the time. 3 weeks later the spotting began and it hasn&#039;t stopped. i should have been more questioning when the nurse asked me if i was comfortable carrying panty liners everywhere in case i start spotting randomly. well, i&#039;m happy to say it&#039;s not random but unhappy to say it&#039;s constant. my partner and i have yet to have sex since i had the baby in april. mostly because of the bleeding and my terrible anxiety for this implant."
