"nexplanon has been the best. i originally selected it 3 yrs ago because i was terrible about remembering to take the pill. when it was first inserted, i was a little moody and almost had a light constant period for a couple months. but, when i made it out of that, it was amazing. i have not had mood swings, cramps, or regular periods while i have had the implant the last 3 yrs. i typically had a light period every 3 or 4 months. i am currently going through my first period without nexplanon. i had mood swings again, cramps, semi-heavy period (much heavier than it was on bc), and i just feel yucky. definitely recommend!!"
