"so far so good with nexplanon for me. i&#039;ve had it for only just over a week but have had the following symptoms: a couple unexplained light headaches (i never get headaches) but these are pretty easily treatable with one advil, it is pretty itchy right now as well, and finally, i am a little dryer during sex, which has been a little frustrating. still, it is better than pregnancy for me right now, that&#039;s for sure. can&#039;t wait until hubby gets a vasectomy one day, though!"
