"i got mine put in february 2015 and i couldn&#039;t be happier (and im only 18). i struggled daily to remember to take the pills and i just finally said i needed something different. i talked to my doctor about nexplanon and she suggested that it would be a great idea. im only using for my period because they would be so heavy, painfuk, and make me practically bedridden the whole time but since the nexplanon i have no complaints. i love it and i would definitely recommend it. the best part is you don&#039;t have to try to remember to take something everyday, you just go about your day."
