birth control
"I read a lot of reviews saying how terrible the nexplanon was. I would advise you not to freak out about it until you try it. When I saw the reviews it hindered me from wanting to get it but when I talked to my friends that had it, they said they loved it. I am currently 19 years old and have had the implant in my arm for 4 months and I love it! I have had 2 periods since the insertion which I found not unusual after seeing the #1 side effect was menstrual irregularities. Also the actual insertion hurt like 6/10 for 2 seconds and it wasn't even the insertion that hurt, it was the numbing shot they gave that hurt. I could not feel the actual insertion. Over all it's been worth it, you don't know until you try, you can always have it taken out!"
