"i got my nexplanon in apirl 20th, 2014, i&#039;ve had it for more than a year. yesterday, i got my period for the first time since i have gotten it. i was so happy to not have a period, and now after more than a year i have gotten one, it makes me really frustrated and upset. with this birth control, i have noticed a lot of mood swings. where one minute i&#039;ll be perfectly fine, than the next minute i&#039;ll notice something thats out of place and freak out, so i feel like i&#039;m crazy. i have gained weight from this birth control, which is whatever, but it sucks not fitting into my pants anymore. i honestly don&#039;t think i&#039;m going to be going back on the nexplanon train due to the fact that my period came from no where."
