birth control
"I got on Nexplanon in mid July 2015. The longest I've ever been off of my period since I got it implanted is about 2 weeks. Since I've had it implanted I've gone between 2 to14 days per month with no bleeding, with the average being less than a week. I'm 25, I've never been on birth control before. I have gained about 10lbs, minor acne outbreaks around my upper back. I have experienced pretty regular tiredness and depression. A comment on here mentioned the dark, rust colored bleeding, I experience that regularly. I'm super close to having it removed because of the constant bleeding. No arguing that it works tho. Haven't used protection since I've been on it. And the implantation process itself was not really painful."
