"nexplanon is supposed to be a 3 year birth control, to where you have no period for 3 years. i have bled for the entire 3 years. i don&#039;t mean regular periods, i mean continuous bleeding for 3 years solid. i went to the doctor about my bleeding. they prescribed me oral birth control to regulate the excessive bleeding caused by my birth control implant. i got the implant on medicaid at the end of my pregnancy, medicaid does not cover the removal. the only plus side is that i never got pregnant."
