"i am nearly at a year with nexplanon. i have been bleeding nearly every single day for this entire year. i wanted to commit to the birth control, and i hoped that my cycle would become regular; instead, the rare week that i am not bleeding i have incredibly painful cramps. 
not sure if this is related, but my chin has developed unprecedented acne(from what i understand, the chin is the hormonal part of the face that breaks out). 
truly the bleeding makes it not worth it. i have destroyed every cute pair of knickers i own. it&#039;s been a year of constant light, but irritating bleeding. 
not pregnant though, so cheers to that."
