birth control
"I had the Nexplanon for 11 months and got the thing removed today! It worked great for its purpose but honestly I couldn't wait to get it out. My cycle became so sporadic. Sometimes lasting for 2 weeks then it goes away for a week and then comes back. At times I wouldn't see it for almost two months and then bam for a few days and then it went away again. My period has always been every 21 days and last for 3 to 4 days.The joint pain was one of the more painful things. I got migraines about 3 or 4 times a week and fever blisters regularly (a few a month). Not to mention I couldn't lose weight. I'm super elated right now that I got it removed today. Everyone is different but I wouldn't tell anyone to get it."
