Birth Control
"I had the IUD before beginning nexplanon, the IUD was the worst, it pinched inside and it stole my sex drive beware!! I&#039;ve had nexplanon for over 2 years already. The first half a year with it, I experienced annoying mood swings. You will gain weight if you don&#039;t take care of yourself (diet/exercise), almost guaranteed! First year no periods, second year periods are now twice monthly. It is effective on preventing pregnancy. Yet you have to think about the side effects, as other birth control. The IUD was a nightmare for me, please do your research!!! If I can choose between that and nexplanon I would choose nexplanon for sure. Probably the worst for me are the even heavier periods, it&#039;s almost like they are backed up from last year."
