"i&#039;ve had the nexplanon for a little over a month. i&#039;m five days late, but i&#039;m guessing that&#039;s because of the nexplanon. i haven&#039;t had any bad side effects. having it inserted was pretty painful, sore for about a week. but now that&#039;s it&#039;s healed i barely even think about it. as of now, i love it. don&#039;t have to remember to take a pill every day, no period (yet). hopefully it will stay like this."
