"i was very skeptical about getting on birth control in general because i did try depot a few years ago and was bleeding non stop for a year. but i recently got into a relationship and wanted to get on birth control so i tried nexplanon. once again i was skeptical after reading so many horrible reviews but decided to try it anyways. i got nexplanon implanted mid march and i got my period the usual time of the month i was expecting it. my period usually last for 5 days but it did last for 2 weeks this time. i have now been off my period for a few days and hoping it stays off!!! no consistent bleeding, no depression, no mood swings and no loss of sex drive. so far so good. only rated it an 8 because i haven&#039;t been on it for too long."
