Birth Control
"I have had nexplanon since July of 2014. I am getting it removed tomorrow, and am going to see about getting permanent contraception. The first month after I got it I had no period, but became very irritable and short-tempered. After the first month I had my period constantly for almost 6 months. Then it became incredibly unpredictable. I started using a period tracker online, and noticed that my periods began getting more regular about 4 months ago. It was 2 weeks of bleeding, followed by 2 weeks of no bleeding.

Another reason I am getting it out is because of weight gain. I gained around 35 pounds over the 2 years I&#039;ve had it. My weight has been increasing steadily, and no amount of exercise or diet will help."
