"as far as birth control goes, the nexplanon implant was really nice and convenient! i had a pretty good sized bruise for about 3 weeks after the implant was put in, and a little bit of soreness, but that&#039;s to be expected. from then on, i didn&#039;t notice it at all!

i had some pretty bad mood swings for the first few months, and figured i just needed to be patient, but instead, it got much worse and became full blown depression. while that&#039;s not good, i am prone to depression, and the implant amplified it, but didn&#039;t cause it.

if i could give any advice, it&#039;d just to be keep an eye on how you feel. i&#039;m sure it&#039;ll take some adjusting, so it&#039;s okay to feel weird for a little while. but if it persists, don&#039;t wait forever to get it out. :)"
