"i&#039;ve always been skeptical about this method, mainly because the thought of a tube going into my arm freaked me out. but since i have a bad reaction to the pills, i chose this vs the other methods. i&#039;ve had it for a little over 6 months and i&#039;ve had no problems. i spotted once the first week and that was it. no mood swings, no binge eating, no weight gain. well there was weight gained but that&#039;s bc i was lazy lol. the only down side is, due to having no bleeding, i never know if i&#039;m pregnant or not. so i buy a pregnant test every 3 months just to be safe. other than that, i love it."
