birth control
"I got the implant in January of 2015,  I spotted and had a light/medium period every day for about two and a half months which of course sucked but I thought it would stop once the implant "kicked in" and my body got used to it. I didn't have my period again until January 2016 they have been LONG, PAINFUL, and HEAVY. They last about 2-4 weeks and are irregular. Sometimes there is a couple months between periods but others only a week. I have become moody, and emotional. ALSO my arm is always PAINFUL and becoming NUMB and is covered in big blue veins. And I have cysts on my right ovary now that I have to get surgically removed. (not sure if that has to do with the implant) I haven't gotten pregnant. That is the only positive."
