"i really love nexplanon, i have zero worry. i&#039;ve had it since june 2012 and have not gotten my period since. also, right after putting it in i really wanted to lose weight and managed to lose 20 pounds so that was no problem for me whatsoever. my only complaint is that it&#039;s made my skin so oily it&#039;s not even funny. my entire life i&#039;ve had perfect skin and now i have acne all over my forehead. for nexplanon, it really depends on what&#039;s more important to you: not getting pregnant or not getting acne."
