Birth Control
"I got this implant in Sept 2012, and I&#039;m definitely looking forward to taking it out this coming Sept.  The only pro here is that it is definitely effective. I&#039;ve been in a committed monogamous relationship for the duration of having this implant, we are a very &quot;active&quot; couple, and I&#039;m still kidd-o free w/o worry. The Cons: I weighed in about 140 when I got this, and am currently weighing in at 167 - almost 30 lbs heavier in less then three years. Disclaimer, I am now 31, so a small amount of this may also be due to slowed metabolism, but def not 30 lbs. I sometimes have a 2 month period, and I sometimes go two months w/o one, there is no predicting it. I have crazy mood swings for no reason, even when I&#039;m not on my period.    Not worth it."
