My Ob said that your periods can become longer for upto 6 months then they should begin to slow down and become shorter and then 1 in 4 women does not have a period again untill it is removed,

he said removal is very fast and can be done at a regular appointment and takes less than 2 minutes,

my spotting and periods are all over the place atm but my ob said it was something to be expected so will give it time, I have also noticed taht I am no where near as cranky or angry at that time of the month anymore and deffinately less painfull so all in all I am very happy with it so far and have had it since oct ( I think LOL )

yeah you ae supposed to have it checked after 6 weeks to be sure it is still in place and protecting you, and make sure nothing has gone wrong.
