birth control
"Hi, I'm 19 y/o and have been on Nexplanon for just over 3 months now. I was on my period on the day of insertion, and the following morning my period stopped... But two weeks later it came right back. It was very spotty, only a panty liner needed, but the longer it continued the heavier it got. I have now been on my period well over a month, no breaks in between, and it has taken a toll on my body. HOWEVER, many people do not realize that they are able to tell their doctor their symptoms. Anything within the first month is your body adjusting to the new hormones, BUT if it continues for longer (like my case) there is medication that can be provided to stop the bleeding. I called and explained, and now medication is being sent to my provider"
