Hello i had my first Zolodex implant put in today, It didn't even hurt considering the needle is always the size of a screwdriver, Im just wondering if any of you guys have had them and what were your experiences and also, How is it removed after a month? or does it dissolve :) xoxoxo

It dissolves over time and is also used to treat endometriosis. It stops one from having a period. Interesting from a FTM point of view also. Replacing it every 28 days especially if it costs $1K each time would make the cost prohibitive.
