"i was put on nexplanon in september after having my son in july. i had heard you either love or hate it but i figured i would be fine on it because i never had side effects on other medicines. boy, was i wrong. my anxiety heightened, my depression worsened, i got terrible acne, i got awful migraines and i bled nonstop for two months. i was also tired and had no energy. i didn&#039;t even feel like myself anymore. after having it for four months, i got it removed. my ob said that basically the nexplanon implant was causing my body to think it was going through menopause. i guess that&#039;s the price i had to pay for the convenience of not having to remember to take a pill daily."
