"i regret, in hindsight, trying this method of birth control. i had been on the microgestin pill for about 5 years prior to trying this - microgestin had worked really well and helped clear my body and face acne significantly.
i had the nexplanon in a total of 8 months (at age 21) - the first 2-3 months were fine probably because my body was still adapting to the change in hormones. after about 3 months it all went downhill. after that 3 month mark hit i began having nonstop bleeding, i became moody and depressed most of the time, my anxiety got worse, and my acne began coming back as it had when i was a teenager before the pill. 
since taking it out, my acne is clearing and my mood is better. i am so happy to be done with it."
