"i love nexplanon. i have had it since april 2012 and it is amazing! i rarely get my period but if i do it is very light, not even enough bleeding for tampons. i know some people&#039;s main concern is being able to feel it. if i&#039;m not trying to i don&#039;t even notice it there! also, i have not gained any weight and my acne is no worse than it was before. definitely an option for those of us who have trouble taking a pill every day or making an appointment every three months!"
