So I am on the mini pill and I keep forgetting when i go out to bring it with me so i am considering getting the arm implant. Does anyone have any advice on it? I hear good and bad im not too sure how i feel about gettibg it yet
I had the implant. I liked it. Only thing that sucked was sometimes my period wouldn't come for months on end other times I would have my period for almost a whole month but when that happened I had to take a birth control pill for a week and I would be fine. I plan on getting it again after this baby comes. It doesn't hurt being put in or taken out. They numb your arm where they put it.
I felt like it was a tad bit uncomfortable having it inserted.
But after going through labor without an epidural working...nothing hurts! Haha. I'd give it a try if I were you! What freaks me out about the BC in the arm is being able to feel it and see it...idk if I could deal with that. I hear it hurts like a bitch too if you accidentally bang it!
Haha. I felt the same way. My doctor recommend that after i had the baby, because for most women it makes your periods EXTREMELY light, and for some women completely stops them. (I can't even tell when I have my period), and got rid of all of my cramping. Used to get cramps so bad! The first 6 weeks the IUD was put in, I did have some bleeding like a period..but it was totally normal..just had to get through that,and now all is good! No issues during sex either.
I haven't tried that...but I have been on all different BC pills in the last and have tried Nuva Ring and IUD...my favorite out of all is IUD which I have now
