birth control
"When I first got the nexplanon implant I thought it was a godsend because I didn't have to worry about getting pregnant for 3 years but I soon found out it was not so ideal. Within a few months I started growing cysts (one in my breast, wrist, on my jawline, and one on my ovaries) and gaining an incredible amount of weight. It also made my periods much heavier and unpredictable. I literally had almost ALL of the side effects possible. I ended up getting it out early. It wasn't too terrible to get out other than the numbing shot was somewhat painful (felt like getting stung by multiple bees in the same spot) and it was a rather quick procedure. I would not recommend the implant to anyone!"
