"soooo, before nexplanon i had the implanon in for the full 3 years and loved it! :) absolutely no issues, never gained weight(ps i also rarely work out and my diet is not the best) and my periods have always been super light and on time every month, after my 3 years were up it was time to have it removed. so i chose to get the nexplanon inserted. the procedure was fast and not very painful, just some bruising. at first i did not get a period for 3 months and i did have some cramping and mood swings, but after 3 months my body adjusted to the new birth control, and i started getting a normal short period each month. :) 

also, my weight has pretty much stayed the same. and i plan on keeping until my 3 year mark is up! :)"
