"pros: no pregnancy.



cons: 2 week periods. itchy scalp, dandruff. facial acne. shoulder, back, chest, upper arm acne. emotional instability. easily irritated. weight gain.



i had this thing in for 2 months and had &#039;gained&#039; 10 pounds by the time i got it removed. 48 hours later, and i&#039;ve already lost 4 of these 10 pounds. this, in turn, led to me having zero confidence in myself. i am usually very confident. the acne was absolutely unbearable too.



after removal, my face is already clearing up. i do have many symptoms that lots of women have after removal, such as nausea and feeling emotional. i&#039;ll take that over having some controlling device inside my body. doctor said it was like my body didn&#039;t want it, because it popped out right away."
