"i&#039;ve had nexplanon for two years this month. as soon as i had it inserted, i haven&#039;t had a period for two years. no spotting either. no acne and no weight gain. (of course i&#039;m a p90x student also). but yesterday my first period in two years started. i sure hope it doesn&#039;t last long because this will be the first one i&#039;ve had. and my cramps are awful this time. and of course no period for two years i had to run out and buy tampons right away. but i do recommend it."
