"i&#039;ve had nexplanon since october, about 4 months. i love it! the insertion was super easy, the shot to numb my arm was the worst part. i had moderate brusing but nothing super noticable and no soreness afterwards. 
i have not gotten pregnant on nexplanon which is the main goal of getting it. i also haven&#039;t had a period since i&#039;ve had nexplanon inserted. no spotting, no bleeding, nothing.
i&#039;ve heard of long term bleeding while on nexplanon, however my gynecologist said usually that can be cleared up with a side of the birth control pill."
