HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern if she has birth control device implanted and having some functional problem like depression mood swing then this is not because of the birth control device the psychological condition is different and nothing to take with birth control device, anxiety and depression need to be treated with antidepressant medicine, take care and have nice day.
