"i just got my nexplanon removed today.  i had it inserted approximately 4 and a half months ago.  for the first month, i didn&#039;t have a period, but once it came it never stopped. i literally have had a period for 3 and a half months and some days it was really intense.  while i&#039;ve maybe had 10 zits my entire 30 years before nexplanon, i probably had at least 2 pimples at all times since i got the implant.  i am getting an iud in a couple weeks.  this sucked.  i gave it 2 starts cause i didn&#039;t get knocked up,"
