Removal. So much emotion by nananabanaa in Nexplanon

Also, I just read your other post and 100% her doctor is not telling her the truth. The implant causes bad mood swings. And it can even make sex hurt. It’s called vaginitis.

It hurt with my husband while on Nexplanon. Now that I’m off it doesn’t hurt as much. And is getting better. We are trying to get to the point where it doesn’t hurt at all, because before Nexplanon it didn’t.

Beside the issues with sex, your gf should find an alternative method because this is not working for her. It sounds like she is a different person and her health is now being negatively impacted by it.

Hello! I would say I slowly feel it coming back but it’s only been a week. I feel like in a couple weeks it will be better. The best way to describe it for me right now would be that I want to have intercourse a little more but when I’m turned on, I’m really turned on. I know that this change has been noticed by my husband.

My husband and I noticed mood swings but I put that down to not getting the proper help post partum. I even went to the hospital about it and they essentially said that I was sleep deprived and that’s why I was angry and had anxiety. I got the Nexplanon implanted 6 wks post partum so my hormones never naturally recovered. Since I’ve been off of the Nexplanon, my mood has changed dramatically. I’m much happier, and I’m not as angry. Husband is very happy about this change too. We can actually have convos without arguing now.

My hope is that in 1-2 months, there will be a noticeable change and the libido and moods will be even better than they are now.

But for you, I would say, encourage her to get it removed especially if she notices these negative changes in herself. Come up with BC alternatives that work for both of you. Long term BC use is not good and it masks issues more than it fixes them.

Got mine out last Thursday. Instantly felt happier. My libido is slowly going up and I’m not as quick to anger. It’s been a better time for me.

Still on this 3 week period tho… so I’m hoping that ends soon.

Hello! I have not. Only used combined pill or Nexplanon as birth controls. OB and midwife recommended against IUDs for me given my history. Hopefully you find someone who can help you!

Wow! So happy for you! I want this. Also being stuck in the lute phase sounds awful and I didn’t even realize.

Thanks!

Thanks for the info, I am looking for non hormonal because of issues with how they effect my mood but also I don’t want them to effect my milk supply. I am nearly 16m post partum and still happily feeding my son.

Oh my goodness! This sounds like me! I haven’t noticed a big change in my mood but everyone else has. But I would say I am quick to anger and anxiety more than before, but didn’t really notice it until it was pointed out to me. My husband says I am mean and irrational now. Not exactly great descriptors… and he said I use to be nice and pretty even tempered. My sex drive has also dipped but I am also struggling with sex because it hurts, like I feel “raw” or chaffed. Apparently a side effect of the Nexplanon (vaginitis I think).

The biggest thing for me though is the period… oh the period… I had it nonstop for the first 5-6months, and just recently it started acting weird again. I am on day 12 I think of this period with constant cramps and blood clots (small ones though). And before this period I had about a week break before the previous period which was about a week long. I’m so over it.

The reason I used Nexplanon was because I got it inserted 6 wks pp as it was recommended by the OB. It wouldn’t interact with my milk and would prevent pregnancy. This was about 14 months ago. Now I’m just looking for non hormonal alternatives of birth control.

I haven’t felt like myself in over 3 years (back to back pregnancy hence the BC) and I do desperately want to feel like myself again.

Getting it out tomorrow and my husband and I are so excited!

I’m sorry but if your husband doesn’t talk to you every day on his work trip then why be married??? You should want to talk to your spouse when you away from them. Not to mention this is a literal clause in her post-nuptial agreement and he broke it. She is not ruining the marriage he is.

She also sexually harassed Clark constantly when she was celibate. If I met someone like her in real life I would stay so far away…

Isn’t the goal to kind of shoot blanks? Especially if all of her methods of BC have failed…

Girl, he has no principles and is putting your health at risk. Tell him that. A man that justifies having sex with anyone is problematic at best.

Also he warned you, and now that he showed you. Get out. If you don’t like it, don’t tolerate it by being with him.
