"after reading the reviews i was kind of worried how nexplanon would treat me. i&#039;m 22. it&#039;s been about 3 months since i&#039;ve had it inserted and the experience has been alright for me. i spot a lot, probably every other week so far after having it in for a month. the spotting is super light and i haven&#039;t had a heavy period since i&#039;ve had it inserted. i have anxiety and have gone through depression as well but this birth control hasn&#039;t made it worse or caused me to go back into depression but i do pms often since i am spotting so often. the spotting has not affected my sex life.. it&#039;s literally something i can kind of ignore as long as i have a panty liner on. i recommend this if you aren&#039;t too affected by spotting or pmsing."
