Nexplanon
birth control
"I've had the implant since October 2015 so I've been on it 1 and a half years. Unlike a lot of people, at the start I had a great experience, my periods got much lighter and then stopped all together and I felt great. However recently, since starting university in September, I've had dramatic mood swings and often cry hysterically about nothing when I'm by myself. It's making it hard for me to study and taking its toll on my long distance relationship. I'm thinking about getting it out but I'm not hesitant to go onto any other hormonal contraception. Luckily I'm under 25 in the UK so the NHS will cover any new cost and provide advise. I just want to feel like myself again."
