birth control
"I have had mt implant since July 2013. 

Pros:

I lost 50 lbs.

I'm not pregnant.

My cycle is predictable. 

I have fewer heavy days.

My periods are less crampy.

Cons:

My period has gone from a week to 2 full weeks plus a few days of spotting.

My iron is subsequently low. Low like 10.9.  

I am a bit moody.



Overall, I'm a bit ambivalent. I like the not worrying about getting pregnant. The cycle issues are inconvenient at most.  Most women I've talked to have  no cycle so it seems to react at a very personal level."
