"i&#039;ve been on nexplanon since august 2015. at first i hated the fact that my period would not stop. i bled for about 3 months on and off, but after that my period stopped. i still spot every now and then but it&#039;s never a regular 7 day period. it lasts about 3 days and is incredibly light. 



thankfully, i don&#039;t have trouble controlling my emotions with the form of birth control. it does not cause mood swings. 



it has now been over a year and i&#039;m still not pregnant so it does the job."
