"so i am in month 3 of having nexplanon and i honestly can say i really like it not having to think about when to take my pill or  if i took my pill.  yes starting out i got cramps and i have had a light period for two weeks.  but considering my last birth control had an 18% chance of getting pregnant this is implant is so much better.  my skin does break out a bit more but i started washing my face twice a day and it is going away.  my boyfriend understands what i am going through.  i can barely tell i have it in and have had no other problems such as fatigue,  weight gain,  or headaches.  everyone&#039;s experience is different but i will probably stick with this until i am ready to have children."
