birth control
"Had Implanon for 3 years with very heavy, long periods, switched to Nexplanon immediately afterewards  (no break between b.c.)



pros: did not get pregnant, didn't have to remember to take anything. No periods for 3 years.



Cons: maybe depression, definitely caused nipple discharge (aka lactating), mood swings, hormone imbalance year 2 of implant (no sex in 6 months leading up to symptom change). 5 months after removal, still have nipped discharge and no periods, but depression/mood swings significantly lessened. Dr informed me could be up to 6 months to get back to "normal""
