"this form of birth control has been pure hell for me. i have not even had it for a year and i want it out now! it has caused me to have  severe  depression! i have always been a happy positive strong person but this year has been terrible due to the mood swings caused by the nexplanon. it also made me have a period for months, then the period finally stopped for several months and they have recently started back up again. it is very frustrating. the nexplanon has changed me into a person i have never imagined being. i am constantly upset. there is not a day i am not falling apart. the nexplanon also made my hair fall out. i don&#039;t believe that it has that listed as a side affect but i have several friends that experience that as well."
