"i received the nexplanon about 4 months ago. i&#039;ve had on and off bleeding and spotting for the past 3 months, sometimes heavy and sometimes brown spotting. no weight gain and more pimples than usual on my chest and back. i have experienced mood changes, somewhat of a depression and immense fatigue at times. sex drive has decreased noticeably. i do not feel like myself. may consider removing it at 6 months if issues have not resolved and the doctor will allow it."
