"i got the nexplanon at my 6 week check-up after having my son in jan 2015, and i have to say i absolutely hate the nexplanon!! i&#039;m on my 3rd one due to pain in my arm all the time and now thinking about getting it removed since the new one i got a week ago is killing me!! i have put on about 40lbs since feb 2015 since i got my 1st implant and can&#039;t seem to lose it, i have mood swings, feel tired all the time and shed hair all the time! i really miss the implanon it was so much better than the nexplanon !"
