birth control
"Terrible option. I had it the full three years 2012-2015 and I gained 30 pounds on it. And lost a ton of hair. I always thought it might have been my stress but it wasn't; it was this rod. I was moody, sad and always depressed. In the three years I had it, I had exactly 2 relationships because no one wanted to deal with my moodiness. These guys thought I was insane. I did wait the 3 years because it was so convenient but convenience is not always smart. Now that I'm off this, I've lost weight and feel much better. Everyone is different but this did not work for me"
