I'm on Implanon and haven't had a period for six years. Lovely.
All medical people I have spoken to say it's actually good for my body not to create and destroy the lining of my womb needlessly every month.

Have a hysterectomy?
Erm, no thanks.
I've known enough of women who have (none as elective surgery).
Three months off work it a lot more unpleasant than 10 minutes every three years to have a small incision in my arm and a new implant added. It doesn't even require a Doctor, simply a trained Nurse.

I'll take my chances on long term effects in the way I do by being overweight. It's a gamble, but an informed one.

Products I never knew existed? Until recently, edible glue and edible marker pens. Now I use them every week.
