"i have been on nexplanon for almost 2 years. for the past year i have had awful symptoms. periods every other week. extremely heavy ones! gained about 20lbs. my eating habits have actually improved and i exercise. there is no reason in my life style in which i should have gained that much weight. i get nauseous, dizzy, head aches, cramps, and breast size fluctuations often. i moved and haven&#039;t found an ob/gyn to take it out! i am over feeling the way i do all of the time. and i&#039;m tired of spending so much on feminine hygiene products each month. i&#039;m spending double what i did before having nexaplon!"
