"i got the nexplanon put in sometime last may. after 2 kids and 24 years this was my first birth control, i figured it would be most convenient because i am horrible with taking pills. for the first 2 weeks it was fine but then after that i bled for 90 days straight. i didn&#039;t feel any side affects until after that 90 days. i started feeling anxious all the time and i don&#039;t want to get out of bed some days or even do any of my normal daily activities. i have been married for 5 years and having sex with my husband was never a &quot;duty&quot; but on this birth control i am never up to it it&#039;s horrible. although not having a period ever now is nice having all the other side affects are not worth it so i am having this implant removed next week."
