i was on it for about a year...i finally had to stop because of insurance, it went up to $60 a month!
pros:
+ only having to deal with it once a month
+ no worries about forgetting to take it, or if you throw up you're still covered, etc etc
+ it helped my skin get clear, and i didn't have any of the wacky hormone effects that i'd had from other pills
+ made my periods light and short, and very regular
cons:
- i had a LOT of discharge. not necessarily a con, but it was disconcerting at first. i eventually got used to it, though.
- i could feel it during sex sometimes, but could never think of a non-awkward segue before sex to remove it! haha!
- it would slip down low/start to poke out sometimes. i usually noticed this when i'd go to the bathroom, and i'd just have to poke it back up there! lol |
