"pros: did not get pregnant. not very painful (removal kind of sucked). 

cons: minor acne at the beginning of implant. general feeling of depression/moodiness (admittedly this was way worse when i took orth tri low dosage). weight gain (take this with a grain of salt - i was not watching my eating habits at all in 2015). constant bleeding (maybe 2 days a month i wasn&#039;t bleeding). 

duration: april 2015-january 19, 2016 (9 months)

i had it removed because i couldn&#039;t deal with the bleeding and moodiness. everybody reacts differently, but it was just not worth it for me."
