birth control
"I started Nexplanon in July of 2014. I had a period almost non-stop for a year with maybe 1-2 weeks break here and there. After the first 3 months I wanted it out, but my doctor encouraged me to wait a little longer since it can take time to adjust. So being the trooper I am, I left it in. After the first hellish year, I stopped having a period completely. That part was fantastic. I did experience bloating, INSANE mood swings and breakouts though. But of course, after a period-less year, I started bleeding nonstop again in June until a week ago when I finally had the implant removed. The other side effects were a lot already...add the non stopping bleeding and I just couldn't handle it. It just wasn't for me."
