"i got my nexplanon implanted in november 2015 and it was fine no bleeding a little increased acne and i actually lost weight. then in early january i started spotting and it has not stopped it&#039;s not heavy but it&#039;s been constant if the purpose is abstinence then it&#039;s doing its job because there&#039;s no having sex if you&#039;re bleeding constantly. i&#039;m going to the doctor to see if anything can be done if not i&#039;m having it removed and trying something else."
