"i&#039;ve been on nexplanon for about 2 months now and have had zero side effects and absolutely no break through bleeding. i did get my period a week after insertion but i was due around that time anyway... i didn&#039;t notice any difference in my period (same cramping, back aches, etc.) other than it lasted for a few days longer. (normally it&#039;s 6 days, this time it was 8). i called my ob and she said to give it a few more months to really regulate.. i&#039;m anxious to see what next month&#039;s cycle will be like. i just hope i don&#039;t get it on my wedding day! 

other thing i forgot to mention is that it was 100% covered by my insurance."
