"i would never recommend this drug to anyone. i understand that some women do just fine and have little to no side effects. i wasn&#039;t so lucky. i did alright with my implanon but when i got it replaced last may and got nexplanon (supposedly the exact same drug), it all went to hell. i have had severe anxiety which has led me to lost weight and any sex drive i had before. my moods were all over the place: i&#039;d be laughing, then something would make me angry two minutes and i&#039;d get so mad, i&#039;d start crying. i cried about everything, including the fact that i cried so much! i decided to get it out today and it took 3 different people and 45 minutes to get it out!!! i had to have stitches. stay away from nexplanon"
