"do not choose this method if you are already a overly sensitive person or may have any depression or anxiety, i would not recommend this. i am 24, and this is my second type of birth control method i tried. after i insert it, it took me about 5/6 months to realize that the medicine caused me to become more sensitive, suffer depression and anxiety. i have about 5 panic attacks in one year and always easily irritated and depressed. once i got rid of it, i was back to normal. it may not be the same for all women but this is my experience."
