When I first started this birth control, I had a period for three months on and than it stopped for three months and that cycle continues into my second year where my periods got more regular like normal. Now in my 4-5 year of use and getting a fresh implant i do not get a period at all. I also noticed a significant amount of weight gain when i started on it about 35 lbs.

I wish I had known side effects sooner! I wish I could sue for pain and suffering. Going on 2 years of vagina, itchiness and dryness. Never knew these were potential side effects and I always thought some other was wrong with me turns out it was the birth control.
