What do women dislike about Jadelle?
The side effect that women like least is menstrual irregularity, which can mean heavy or prolonged bleeding, spotting, or no bleeding at all. This kind of irregular bleeding occurs because the method contains no estrogen. While such irregular bleeding is usually no cause for alarm, it can be troublesome for some women. In addition, women complain about side effects common to other hormonal methods, such as weight gain, headaches, acne, and mood changes. Some rod users are anxious about possible pain and complications from the insertion and removal procedures. Since the Jadelle system is not user-controlled, it is important that women be able to request removal and receive it promptly from competent providers.
