"first implant march 2013 - no problems what so ever, not a single one!! no period!  march 2016 - expired - getting married in august and honeymoon in january - opted to put nexplanon back in until we get back from the honey moon. removal and re-insertion was easy as pie and only took about 15 min of my time.  excellent choice since i read up on all forms of contraceptive since oral contraceptive failed me the first time.  but it all worked out and we are to be married!!  i have read horrible reviews regarding nexplanon. just know that it is not for everyone and that it is worth a shot. i have not had a period and no side effects. steadily loosing weight and not gaining, no acne, no mood swings or depression. would totally recommend!!!"
