"i have to say that nexplanon from personal experience has been the best birth control and decision i have ever made. i don&#039;t have to worry about putting or taking something. it is just in my left arm and don&#039;t feel anything. when the dr first put it on me i was super nervous but it was a short sting. the only symptoms i got was feeling fatigued and migraines. no fun. my period last 3 weeks but it was very light. now i don&#039;t even get my period. had it for 6 months and i love it!"
