"i tried this because hey, who doesn&#039;t love 5 year birth control that you basically forget about? it was absolutely awful. the insertion experience was excruciating for me. i passed out on the table and vomited. 

i gained 35lbs in 7 months despite counting calories/working out. i had extremely bad anxiety/depression, i would walk into a place and immediately start pouring sweat. i got terrible acne all along my jawline &amp; back. extremely low sex drive &amp; i was so emotionless i felt like a robot. i was on the iud for about 7 months then decided i couldn&#039;t handle these issues anymore. 

the removal was easy, i didn&#039;t even feel it. since then i&#039;ve lost weight, acne cleared up, sweating went away, and i have emotions again. would not recommend."
