"pros: didn&#039;t get pregnant, didn&#039;t have to worry about taking a pill everyday.



cons: facial acne, acne on shoulders, chest, upper arms and back, change in hair/scalp (now itchy and flaky, almost like i have dandruff, and dandruff shampoo doesn&#039;t help), controlling of my mood, and no change in cramps.



i have mild anxiety and the nexplanon made it so much worse. along with that, it&#039;s controlling my mood to the point where i am very irritated and angry over the smallest things. i did not have many pimples with a combination birth control pill, and now my face, shoulders, upper arms, chest, and back look like pepperoni pizza. i have never had a scalp issue, and now my head constantly itches and flakes.



don&#039;t do it"
