Birth Control
"Probably worst experience of my life. I did like the convenience of the implant being in my arm and not having to remember to take a pill or have something up my vagina. However, nexplanon was NOT for me. I went through terrible mood swings (from being happy one moment to coming close to crying for no reason a few minutes later). My period was pretty much non-existent, which was something I was looking for in a birth control. But, I gained so much weight (accumulating nearly 30 lbs). No matter what I did to lose weight- which I did through working out at least an hour six days a week and cutting my caloric intake to less 1,200 a day- it still did not work. I am getting it removed tomorrow so I&#039;m hoping I will be back to myself soon!"
