I like the efficacy and not worrying about pregnancy. I dislike the mood effects and weight gain.

I had the Nexplanon Implant for 8 months. After only having it for 1 month I got a yeast infection. Shortly after I got another one and then another one. Yeast infections seem to come every month while using probiotics. I have never had this many infections in my life. I am going immediately to have it removed.

It’s better than the pill in many ways, but it’s definitely not perfect. Nexplanon has stopped my periods with the exception of one 7+ day long HEAVY period. I also pour sweat like it’s what I do for a living. My sex drive has greatly suffered too. The higher risk of ectopic pregnancy is scary as someone who lives in a pro-life state. However, IUD insertion scares me and I’m bad at taking pills consistently. So implant it is! I wish I could give it 4.5 stars.
