2. Depression (I've suffered with depression before and the drug just aggravated my depression more)
3. Headaches 
4. Breast tenderness 
5. Anxiety/ panic attacks ( which I've never had a problem with before til now)
6. Difficulty breathing (had a pulmonary test and a cardiologist look at my heart and they said all was fine)
7. Chest pain/ palpations 
8. Paranoia
9. HORRIBLE cramps ( I've never had really bad cramps until I got the Nexplanon put in)
10. No periods for a couple of months just spotting, no period but horrible cramps
11. Backache
12. Hungry all the time 
13. No sex drive"
