I had this a couple of months ago. Again I had erratic bleeding but I think it's worth it to know I don't have to remember to take pills and stuff!

TR!

Light bleeding preferable to a 3rd baby imho ....

I had this out a few months ago after 6 months. It was 6 months of horrible headaches, almost constant bleeding, i.e. 3wks on, 1wk off, the bleeding was horible too, lots of clotting (sorry if thets tmi), headaches for the last few days going into the 1st few days of bleeding, so was always either hurting or bleeding.

I've never had side effects to any other contraceptive so thought I'd be fine with this one.
