Birth Control
"I&#039;m nineteen and got the implant in the middle of January 2016. In terms of actually controlling birth, Nexplanon is great. However, I&#039;ve been bleeding nonstop since about a week after it was put in. There&#039;s a day here a there where I don&#039;t bleed or it&#039;s light spotting, but otherwise I&#039;ve had a very literal period for almost eight months. I haven&#039;t dealt with any increased acne or weight gain, but it&#039;s now impossible for me to lose weight, where I had lost about sixty pounds in the year prior to starting this bc. Also, I have hysterical mood swings and find myself depressed and tired more intensely than ever before. If you&#039;re considering this option, proceed with caution when it comes to the side effects."
