birth control
"8 weeks since getting Nexplanon: My experience has been positive. Insertion pain was minimal and mostly centered around the needle used to inject the medicine that numbs your arm. There was a bit of bruising for a week or so after insertion but since it has healed I haven't felt a thing. No acne, no weight gain (well, there is weight gain but it is from diet!), no mood swings and NO PREGNANCY. My first period was a bit longer but way less crampy. For me, it has been a dream and I absolutely love it."
