birth control
"After I had my daughter, the doctors really pushed and recommended that I get the Nexplanon over a typical daily pill. Ever since I got it implanted, my periods have been extremely irregularly. At times, I would go 2-2 1/2 months without getting my period, but when it finally came, it lasted weeks. It's really a win-lose. Although you don't get your period as often, it sticks around longer. I have experienced no side effects until lately. After a year and a half of having it, I started getting pregnancy symptoms (nausea, bloating, headaches, back pain, etc.). And I worried that much more because since my period is so irregular, it makes no sense to try to track my periods so I didn't know if I was pregnant or not due to my lack of period."
