"i&#039;ve had the nexplanon since may, and it had been great. it wasn&#039;t even that sore to get put in. i&#039;m terrified of needles, so i didn&#039;t know what to expect, but it wasn&#039;t that bad at all. more sore, than uncomfortable. i didn&#039;t watch it getting put it, but my arm was numbed, then the implant was inserted a minute later. i felt a click when it was inserted, and then that was it, no hassle! for a week or two after, there was a bruise on my arm, but after a while, there was no sign that anything was there. i barely have a scar now either! i haven&#039;t had a period in about 8 months (and i&#039;m definitely not pregnant), so it really does its job! highly recommend it to anyone."
