"i got the nexplanon inserted on february 17th and i&#039;m totally happy with it so far. no spotting, i&#039;ve had one period that only lasted about 9 days, and a little bit of joint pain. i have a small scar at the insertion site and i bruised really badly for about two weeks. i was really worried it would kill my libido, as was my experience with the pill, but it didn&#039;t affect it at all, in fact i feel so much more free now i enjoy sex a lot more. i would definitely recommend the nexplanon!"
