Ive read tons and tons of these blogs for the nearly 3 years that I have had my implanon. I have finally decided that I would make a post as well. :)

 

I got my implanon oct 13, 2010. It is due to come out this year. Dispite all the bad experience blogs i have read the past 3 years, i have to say this is a great product.

 

At first, i didnt have a period at all, then i got to where id have them every 3 months and then every month. I was so used to bleeding like a stuck hog for days before my implanon that when i got it not having one and skipping was great to me, and they were very light and easily managed! I really enjoyed it. I didnt cramp, no pms, no bad symptoms.

 

Nov 2012, i was on antibiotics for a UTI, of course my husband and I never have protected sex because a baby would be welcomed anytime regardless of our situation if the lord was willing. I skipped december period but didnt think anything about it due to my past skipping of periods. i thought of it as a break, had been having periods like clock work the past 6-8 months.

 

Period, or at least what i thought was a period came jan 5, 2013. It first started light as normal i thought yay i got a period back to reality. Then it started to get heavier, okay no big deal just a little heavier from skipping last month i assumed. Then the clots started coming out. As big as my hand i was having to wear 2 tampons plus a pad and was soaking them within 2 hours. okay that was not normal so i went to the ER thinking i was hemorrageing. Turns out, I was having a miscarriage. It didnt hurt and i was lucky to be able to have it all by myself without a dnc. I didnt even know i was pregnant. They said i was around 5.5 weeks or so. It made it easier not knowing about the pregnancy but, i fell depressed so bad. I bled for 14 days straight but i didnt become enemic.

 

It is now Jan. 21 and i have been off my bleeding spell not even a week yet and am starting to spot again. I am definitely calling the OBGYN in the morning to make an appt for removal. Im actually glad cuz now i have the chance to get pregnant again and we are ready this time. I want a baby so bad and have wanted one for a long time. Its time. I just hope it doesnt take Good luck to all future mommies!!
