"i had my nexplanon implant put in at the beginning of february 2014. about a week after i started spotting and haven&#039;t stopped since. it isn&#039;t as bad as i had expected, i just have to wear pantiliners everyday. the only other side effect i&#039;ve experienced is a total lack of any sex drive whatsoever. other than that, i haven&#039;t had any other issues with the birth control and am very satisfied with my choice of using nexplanon."
