"100% awful!!! i got the implant in november 2013. due to medical complications that resulted in a blood transfusion. my doctors put me on the nexplanon to control the bleeding and restore my iron. i bled just about every day, for two years. it may end for a day or three. or even a few hours. but never anymore than that. i gained 30 lbs. that i can&#039;t seem to get off. i had migranes nearly every day. bloating, mood swings, couldn&#039;t concentrate, no sex drive what so ever. acne so bad, and discharge that looked so grouse. but clean pap-smears . i had a horrible expirence and wouldn&#039;t recommend it to anyone."
