birth control
"Got the implant due to being sexually active as well as having horrific periods and hoping that it would calm them down, which it did not do. Actually made my periods worse, I had a period that lasted a month in the first month. The implant also made me extremely tired and have frequent headaches and mood swings. After a couple of months this died down, but then even worse side effects took their place, I began to feel extremely depressed and sad and cried at least everyday, even breaking down at my part time job (thankfully the managers were very understanding). I still feel depressed and I'm planning to get the implant out as soon as possible, it's been 3 months and the side effects have yet to die down so I am v fed up :/"
