Birth Control
"I&#039;ve had Nexplanon for two years now. Insertion was easy. I noticed some queasiness for a few months after, but anti-nausea wristbands helped. Other than that the first year was fine. I had occasional periods which lasted about as long as usual. My sex drive decreased, but not too badly. The second year, I&#039;ve had two two-week long periods. My acne has returned. My sex drive has decreased to zero. Worst of all, I have pretty bad depression. I&#039;m easily irritatable and will freak out over small things. I&#039;ve never had depression before. I thought it was culture shock (I live in Japan) until I read an article linking birth control with depression. Now I&#039;m pretty sure it&#039;s that. If I could, I would get it out to see if my depression lessens."
