"hate it!! nexplanon does its job at preventing pregnancy i give it that but the side effects are terrible. i&#039;ve had it since august 2014. i&#039;ve bled 3 weeks out of every month since i got it, constantly have a headache, nausea, weight gain, always bleeding, period cramps are worse than i had before i got the implant, all around terrible. i would not recommend to anyone. getting removed as soon as i get insurance again."
