"i have had nexplanon for 7 months now and so far it&#039;s been great. biggest change has been the breakouts, i was never one to breakout and now i do, i always have at least one pimple but never more than 3. i had mild spotting a week after it was put in and no period since, however, i did get a real heavy period that was nothing but brown blood (old blood) but no big deal. overall, it&#039;s been good, i&#039;ll take a few zits over an unwanted pregnancy! i know everyone is different, i wish this worked for more women because it&#039;s so convenient to put it in and not worry. i would recommend everyone to try it at least and see how it goes."
