"like most people, i was extremely nervous about the procedure to get this birth control inserted. however, i was so done having to take an oral contraceptive everyday and just wanted something that was less of a hassle. after discussing different options with my obgyn, we decided on nexplanon. it only took a week from talking with my doctor before the actual procedure. i had watched multiple youtube videos on the process and was extremely nervous. my doctor did an excellent job talking me through everything he did and i honestly didn&#039;t feel a thing. it was so quick and easy! i didn&#039;t have any bruising or side effects after the insertion. its been a little over a month and nothing! its awesome."
