Any suggestion for suffering from depression after having implanon implanted?
human
Hi my 19 year old daughter had the implanon implanted in November. By December, she was no longer the happy go lucky girl she had always been. She became doubtful, withdrawn, crying all the time, unhappy, socially withdrawn, clinging to me, sleeping a lot, generally unhappy. We had it taken out 4 weeks ago and nothing has changed. Yesterday she was diagnosed by her gp with depression and provided with a script for medication. I am asking how long it takes for the body to return to normal and if she will at all. We are sad and need some help. Thanks

DearWe understand your concerns.I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Implanon implantation seldom creates depression. But some medicines given after the implantation as anti biotics and pain releivers could cause depression. Over and above, lazyness and idl mind after the implantation procedure coupled with inactivity could have triggered depression which is normal for any 19 year old. But it is not clear that why she is unable to come out of that dpressive state even after 4 weeks vacation. Put her into hectic schedule an keep her busy in her academics and career. Being busy should help her immensely. Also please ignore her when she says something about her depression and other problems.Please post a direct question to me in this website. Include as many details as possible. I shall prrescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help for sure.Hope this answers your query. Availble for further clarifications.Good luck.
