"so i got the nexplanon 6 months ago. the insertion wasn&#039;t bad. i didn&#039;t bruise either. i got a period about a week later and then nothing for 5 months.. i have been bleeding for almost 30 days now!!! my doctor said use a birth control pill to help the period become consistent. i mean doubling up on hormones is just a great idea, right??? hell no. i started taking mononessa on top of the nexplanon a couple days and it has been the worst decision ever. i feel so nauseas i can&#039;t focus. i just want to puke. the nexplanon also gave me bad headaches. but with the mononessa it&#039;s worse. the bleeding is a little better now but what&#039;s the point? i&#039;m on two birth controls. as soon as i stop mononessa the bleeding will return. removing nexplanon soon!!"
