    Default Norplant Implant

    Even though I am kinda young I am absolutely certain that between now and at least 27 or 28 I do not want any babies. I don't think I want any at all, but I'm certain up until that point at least. I have always been careful and have never been or even worried whether or not I might be preggers b/c I always took the necessary precautions. I have been on the pill for a while which is not a problem, but the Norplant seems like it would be a lot easier (I'm always looking for the easy way to do things).
    I have read the pros and cons and discussed it with the doc and the bf and think that after summer school ends and b/4 regular school resumes that I would like to have it done. Dos anyone have any experience with the Norplant or know anyone who has had it? I appreciate all input, negative or positive.
    I know its a big step and it has risks but so does the pill and they are actually about the same as the pill, the only thing is the pill is cheaper and thus more widely/easily accessible/available. And, if I don't like it I can have it removed at any time. Feel free to share and thanks for listening.

    One of my best friends the Norplant she had it put in after she had her son (now 11). When that one ended she had another one put in. The only draw back that she has mentioned is a bit of moodiness. She hasn't gained more than a few punds and that seems to fluctuate. She did mention that the Dr. she went ot first didn't do them when she went back for the second one but he did recomend an alternate dr.

    Good luck,

    I have a friend that had this Norplant removed, before that her periods stopped, she bloated, and was MEAN....

    Some BC methods react different in women. She then went and had her tubes tied.

    She has 2 children, and is happy

    Perfect summation Pamela- I think is it great to gather responses from other women but of course no ones body reacts the same.

    I am going to the doc's office 2morrow and I'm debating whether to get it done on the spot 2morrow or not. I'll let you all know how it goes. I'm actually going for something else and decided that I should go ahead and tentatively schedule just in case I get gutsy tomorrow and do it. If not, we'll just take care of everything else I need to be seen for. Thanks for the input all. I'm thinking....I'm thinking....I'm thinking..........
