"so when i first got this birth control, i loved it. i had no side effects besides the spotting and rarely having any periods (had at least two actual periods within 7 months) i did not gain or lose any weight but i think since it is a long term birth control you never know when the side effects will kick in? now after 7 months of having it inserted, i have gotten a lot of acne on my face that i never before have gotten and i get mood swings. not only that but there are times where i have 0 sex drive and i do not get wet enough i am considering getting it removed soon."
