"i got my first implanon at 16 years old, i am 23 now and i am in the last month of my second implant. overall it served it&#039;s purpose but it wasn&#039;t until recently i read up on the side effects. i credit a lot of my problems over the past 3 years to nexplanon. i started loosing my hair, i did not ever want to have sex with my boyfriend, i had terrible mood swing, i was depressed and i actually lost weight. i had even been suffering from hair loss for the past 2 years. i didn&#039;t get pregnant but i don&#039;t think all the other side effects were worth the implant. i will definitely not be getting this method again."
