Etonogestrel
birth control
"I had Implanon (now Nexplanon) for 2 years before having it removed SOLELY due to the fact I was donating eggs and could not be on any form of birth control during that time. I absolutely love this form of birth control, nothing to remember to take, out of sight out of mind. I've recently gone back on it and still prefer it. As with any form of birth control, there is weight gain involved over the course of time, however, it's still a phenomenal form of birth control. I do have a slew of mental illnesses (BPD, GAD (Anxiety), Dysthymia (Chronic Depression), and SPD) and note the nexplanon did not have an effect on my mental state (though a family member did mention previously I wasn't as irritable whilst on birth control). I would recommend Nexplanon."
