My sister had it. She said getting in implanted didnt hurt much at all. Neither did taking it out. You could feel it in your arm though, it your poked at it! Which I thought was kinda weird lol but she bled on it for a few months and got it removed. She didnt get sick on it or anything though! Its worth a try definitely. Just depends on if it works for you as an individual I guess!
DON'T DO IT!! Everyone I know who has had it bled for months and months and even became aniemic from all the bleeding and eventually had to get it removed.
I've heard a lot of bad things about the mirena. Worse than implanon so I'm very confused I know that you bleed a lot from both @brittbeck how long did they last with it? @beaded_bunny lucky! Were you able to get pregnant fast afterwards? @usafwife21 that's the scarry part for me the whole surgically removal and surgicalltly putting it in lol
Its not really surgical, they nick your arm and they slide it under the skin..takes about 10-15 minutes to put in. The people I know who have it really like it, the only thing one complained about is the random spotting you can have from time to time
Im gettimg the iud paragaurd non hormoneal.. Cause I have enpugh of my own hormones lol.. Had it for 6 yrs before I had my 2nd.. Got prego right after..
I had it. I would not recommend it. It always felt weird BC it was so close to the skin and u can feel it poking out. I don't remember anything about heavy or light bleeding so im assuming it was pretty normal. The biggest reason I got rid of it was BC it was a weird feeling to me . When the Dr tried to take it out it got stuck. The incision ended up getting really infected and I have an ugly scare on my arm now.
I jst went and got the implanon today, I was supposed to get the mirena but changed my mind... it took about 5min tops, they cleaned the area, gave u a shot to numb it, and thn the incision, a small cut like a paper cut, and then stuck in the implanon... it didn't hurt at all, my arms not sore yet, and honestly it felt like a pinch while she was pushn it in... so I really hope it works out for me, good luck cuz I was so stuck on wat to do btw I'm 9wks postpartum lol so I really put it off!
I really hated it. mood swings from hell , no sex drive at all. The only good thing was I had no periods at all. Plus if you have ovarian cyst can make them worse.
