Birth Control
"I&#039;m 18 and I have had the implant for about 3 months. Overall, it has been very effective for it&#039;s main purpose and my skin has improved massively. My periods are still regular but now last much longer (about 8 days) and are so light that using tampons is out of the question. I do experience more mood swings and often cry for no reason. The biggest side effect I&#039;ve noticed has been my weight, I have lost a lot of weight and have nearly no appetite and when I do eat I feel nauseous. I also can&#039;t drink alcohol without being sick all of the next day, not sure whether this is the implant but it only became an issue after getting it. I much prefer this method than the pill and would recommend, still waiting for my body to settle down!"
