I had the arm implant for two years. I hated it, worse thing ever. The hormones made me hate sex, made me moody and ***** . It also caused embarrassing hair to grow on my face... It was horrible. It took me a long time to figure out what was causing me so many problems. The best thing I did was had it removed.
I was just talking to my doctor about birth control this morning... she knows that I don't want anymore kids but I am hesitant to get my tubes tied just yet-- plus I don't want major surgery.... there are 2 alternatives to the major surgery... one is a laproscopic surgery where they make 2 small incisions and an outpatient procedure... the other isin the office and they go in vaginally and put coils on the opening of the fallopian tubes and it causes scarring... I dont plan on making any major decisions like that for at least a year or 2... I am terrible with taking birth control pills and am allergic to latex-- so no nuvaring or the patch... deprovera made me bleed for 3 months so I think im gonna get an IUD
In my state Denver co they band that birth control! For reason it would travel from ur arm n it could get lost inside u. Never tryed my self but many of my friends had it and had to get it removed.
I had the implanon it was metal mine was plastic but I loved it a month after I had it put in my arm I didn't have a period until I had it taken out...it was my favorite birth control and I plan on getting it again after I deliver
