I'm 16, currently in a relationship (going two and a half years) and I got the implant Dec 6th last year (2011). I've had it in 6 months this month, and I'm still bleeding, constantly. I started bleeding 26th Dec and it hasn't stopped.
I suffer from a history of severe depression, and I can feel it gradually getting worse, after my doctor told me it would help. I've also noticed that my moods are all over the place. I've threatened to kill my brother, and had him up against the wall a couple times since having the implant. One minute I'll be angry as hell, the next I'll be cry and not even a minute later I'll be happy as larry, as if I'm doped up. It's even started to hurt a little in the area that the implant is in.
My mum says I shouldn't get it removed, and that I should give it a chance, but to be honest, it's made me feel like complete ****. My boyfriend is nuetral about the situation, as long as I'm still using some kind of birth control, he doesn't really care.
I really want to take it out, but I'm not ready for a baby, no matter how much I want one; I just don't know what to do.. help?!
