I love it, as far as preventing me from conceiving its doing its job, but I think it depleted my sex drive a lot... Like A LOT. Anybody else having any similar issues? It's so bad my fiance has taken notice. Any advice on what to do? Im super scared of getting pregnant again and don't want to take it out... (He would prefer it out)

I was very irritable, aloof, and generally unhappy on this birth control. It also worsened my menstrual cramps.
Very negative mood

Essentially painless procedure. Had a few aches here and there. Haven't gotten anyone pregnant.
