"to start: i have menstrual migraines because i create too much estrogen. i cannot use birthcontrol that contains estrogen. i chose to get nexplanon 7 weeks after having my first baby. before i had the baby, i had an iud which i loved, but the process of getting it implanted was extremely painful because i have a tilted uterus. so i decided to try nexplanon. i&#039;ve had this in for about a year during which i&#039;ve basically never stopped bleeding. very light mostly - can wear a liner. but it never stops. extremely low sex drive. moody. told by doc this would all stop after &quot;some time&quot;. planning to get it removed soon. i will never use this form of bc again - i don&#039;t care that it&#039;s the most effective on the market; side effects are miserable."
