"i&#039;m reading a lot of bad reviews on here and i cannot relate to them at all. i&#039;ve had nexplanon for almost a year now. i do have a period, that is a few days longer than my period was prior to nexplanon, but it is certainly nothing unbearable. i have not gotten pregnant and my mood is steady. i did gain a few pounds when i first got on nexplanon but they quickly dropped off as my body readjusted. i barely notice the implant is there. i&#039;m very sorry for the ladies who have had a bad experience but i would definitely suggest this to anyone looking to be on birth control."
