I'm wanting to get the implant because I take the depo shot now and I've been on it for a little over a year now. Ive had my period everyday for a month... which sucks so I'm ready to try a different method. I originally got on the shot so I could gain weight since I'm 103 and I HATE being called skinny. I've also noticed bad mood swings. I get really angry over the smallest things and I don't want those anymore. Do you think the implant will have positive side effects if I had bad ones with the depo???

This will be my 5th shot and I'm starting to get my really bad cramps back and I've been bleeding heavy for a month now. I've also had horrible mood swings towards my husband over these past two weeks. I just got married, soooo intercourse is often but I'm not wanting to have kids for about 5 more years or so.
It sounds like progestin only birth control (Depo Provera, Implant, min pill) may not suit you. You may find the combined pill more effective for you.
I tried the two and it was pretty much the same bleeding on and off and not being able to tell when I was going to have a period or not , I'd give it a try for a few months. It may be different for you in that respect but what I did find is that my moods dramatically improved, no omg which was a bonus. My sister has the implant too and didn't bleed the whole time. Good luck t xx
