"so i&#039;ve been on nexplanon for about three weeks and have been bleeding for over two.  that was explained to me but i thought it would just be irregular bleeding rather than super long. i was hospitalized because i thought i was having a stroke turns out it was a severe complex migraine caused by the hormones. it mimicked a stroke and i get throbbing in the arm that has the implant. doctors have done texts and say everything is fine but i know my body. also my mood swings are almost worse than when i was pregnant with my son. i am super tired most of the time and my sex life has suffered most because of the prolonged bleeding.  i&#039;m dizzy when i stand up and become short of breath easily. i work out alot but have no motivation anymore. getting off it"
