"i&#039;ve had nexaplanon for 9 months now, at first when first inserted i started my period regularly but it was like a month long and it was very light, just really a annoying! but after that no period for 8 months, i have gained 10 pounds and get more acne than usual, horrible mood swings at first, but i&#039;m doing better now.  but here&#039;s the thing that has me really worried, in the beggining of this month i started to work out and lift weights!, after a week of working out super hard, i started getting sore nipples, bloating , and cramps for a whole month (no blood tho) until 2 days ago the blood has came out and it&#039;s thick and painful like a regular period! i&#039;m scared and hoping my body is okay, maybe i put my body in shock from working out!"
