Implanon
"I'm on my second implant, and although I got on pretty well with the first one I've decided to have this one out early. For the first year or two I wouldn't have any periods at all, which was great, but towards the last year I'd start to have random, then more regular periods. This time, I've started getting bad cramps and heavier periods so I think it's time to try something else.

Insertion and removal is fine - you get local anaesthetic, might be a little bruising after and scars but it's nothing to worry about.

My biggest cons are that my sex drive went way down, and I gained about 25lbs. All in all it is effective and worth giving a go."
