"i recently got my nexplanon implant removed after three years- i got mine inserted on decemeber 12th, 2010. i did not experience any bleeding after it was inserted, nor did i have a period for the whole duration of it being in my arm; i&#039;m still waiting for one to arrive a month after it being removed. i also did not experience any weight gain, in fact, my breasts decreased in size (unfortunately for a aa cup). it is great protection- however, i am concerned on how my period will be and when it will come now that i have had it removed (it&#039;s been a month today)."
