"the only good thing about nexplanon is not getting pregnant or having to take a pill. i&rsquo;ve had this implant for about 2 and a half years and i&rsquo;m on my period all the time. i&rsquo;ll bleed for a week, stop for a couple days, and then start again for another week. my periods are usually normal to light- but i&rsquo;m bleeding 50% of my days some months.  and often times it looks old and brown. my &ldquo;normal&rdquo; month is a 7 day period. being on my period so much also messes with my vaginal ph. i&rsquo;m getting it removed this week and i&rsquo;m so ready. and so is my husband."
