birth control
"I started Nexplanon about 2 years ago. At first I thought it was a great option for my lifestyle and my goals, but I just yesterday had it taken out. Yes, it is effective in preventing pregnancy, but the side effects snuck up on me and I just realized that a lot of problems I've been having emotionally and physically are all due to the implant. I've been getting angry at things that don't even make sense, feeling depressed even though my life is great, eating a lot better than I ever have before and doing thousand calorie workouts five times a week, yet my weight has not gone down at all! I used to be able to lose weight crazy fast, and now it's impossible. I'm going back to the patch. Going through the side effects is NOT worth it!"
