"this is the worst birth control, but it does protect against pregnancy very well. i&#039;ve had this in for 8 months and i&#039;m still on my period. it doesn&#039;t go away. my obgyn even put me on more birth control, which didn&#039;t help at all. i have crazy mood swings, depression, and i cry for no reason all the time. i didn&#039;t even think about it being a side effect from this until my boyfriend told me i&#039;m always getting mad, and that&#039;s not like me. i can&#039;t wait to get it removed and go on with my life!"
