Hello everyone! I’m new to birth control, I’ve never been on it and I just started it at 23. I did nexplanon because I am sexually active; I didn’t want an IUD, didn’t really look into the patch, and I’m just really bad at taking pills in general. I’ve had a relatively positive experience so far. Emotionally, I’ve always been quick to anger in day to day stuff especially living in Orlando the traffic is just ridiculous so I can’t really say if that has had any effect. I haven’t seen any effects in my depression or anxiety so I will say that’s a good sign. I haven’t had any spotting or anything, I know it’s still quite earlier so I’ll come back and say if anything changes! So far, so good!
