"i&#039;ve been on nexplanon for almost three months now (it was inserted valentines day weekend) and i love it. 

i have experienced some side effects, however. i have noticed an increase in acne, but thankfully i found a new face wash that seems to keep it at bay. my hair gets slightly oilier (but i only wash it every 2-3 days anyways). i have also had some spotting. nothing too extreme, i can get away with a single pantiliner for the day. the spotting has been on and off for the past months. it will come for a few weeks, and then leave for a few weeks. no weight gain, no funny cravings, no mood swings. 

fyi i&#039;m 23 years old, 120 lbs, and i exercise 5-6 days a week. best of luck!"
