"this form of contraception is great for preventing pregnancy, there is no worry of forgetting a pill. however after 6 months i&#039;ve just had my implant removed, at first it was fine, although periods are very irregular, they would happen unexpectedly. i suffered from mood swings, depression, low sex drive and acne whilst having the implant. my appetite increased, constantly feeling hungry and i gained some weight. my emotions were all over the place, i found myself getting far too emotional, crying quite a lot! i&#039;m so happy that it is now removed and i can look forward to feeling good again."
