birth control
"I got this implant November 20 of 2016. At first my periods were irregular and had spotting in between, had lower back pain and mood swings/depression. My periods went away which is amazing but the depression has gotten worse and I now have cystic acne all along my chin, cheeks forehead, and all over my hairline. I've dealt with acne all my life and I finally had it under control so this implant causing my skin to break out in painful cysts is a deal breaker. I am sad to get it removed because it is a convenience that I don't have to take a pill everyday, did not gain weight off of it and it took my periods away. But my skin is more important to me."
