birth control
"I had Implanon inserted in March, 2008 about 6 weeks after my son's birth.
- periods are very infrequent (I skip 3-6 months at a time)
- periods last 4-6 WEEKS (as opposed to my normal 4-6 days)
- weight gain (I weigh as much today as the day I walked into the hospital to deliver my son!)
- mood swings (I'm nearly as emotional as during pregnancy)
- dizziness (I get light headed/dizzy quite often). 

I loved the convenience, but the side effects have become too much for me.  I'm getting it removed this week."
