birth control
"I gave birth to my daughter 7 weeks ago and had the nexplanon implant purely on the recommendation of the health advisors. The insertion wasn't painful but within hours I was lethargic, tearful, sweating and had an horrendous headache. I haven't cried once since giving birth, don't get headaches and had been happy and relaxed - this reaction had to be a result to the nexplanon. I started to panic and literally wanted to rip the thing out of my arm. Fortunately I have a friend who is a nurse and she took it out the next day. I know I should have given it more time but I have 2 other children to look after and my own business and I want to enjoy my life - not put up with feeling horrendous! My advice is to avoid at all cost."
