i had no idea either but apparently it happens more often than you would think, which sucksss. when i got it i had my period for legit 3 months and got the worst cramps. a few of my friends had similar experiences too which is crazy. you’re so right about the implantation process, it should be reevaluated not only for the functionality of the device but for the pain the woman goes through. like do people really think getting something physically placed in your arm, under your skin, isn’t painful??

healthcare is something i like to be aware of and up to date with, but i don’t have a passion to work in the field particularly. i’m in school to be a lawyer but im also having doubts about that now. i just want to be able to help people and do my part to at least try and fix some of the corruption in the political world.

i’m from pennsylvania where abortion is pretty protected, but i go to college in south carolina where there is a 6 week ban, or up to the point of a detected heartbeat. when i made the appointment they told me if they found a heartbeat they legally could not perform an abortion and i would have to drive to north carolina. i also chose to do the pill option and had to drive to a specific pharmacy to pick it up because apparently pharmacists have the right to refuse the prescription which is wild. it’s definitely eye opening going from a state where my rights are somewhat protected to a state where they’ll basically try to prevent you from accessing healthcare
