Etonogestrel
birth control
"I have been on Nexplanon for the past two years. When I first got the implant, everything was going great until a month into it. My mood changed drastically due to the hormones and I wanted it out as soon as possible. I was told to wait a few months to get used to it so I abided by this. 4-6 months in, I started getting horrible acne, and I am now on two different prescriptions to (hopefully) get rid of it. The acne won't go away and my dermatologist said it won't until I get the implant taken out. Fast forward to today, I have been continuously bleeding for three weeks, going on four, (have never bled on Nexplanon before) and can't take it any longer. Nexplanon was great, up until now and the other side effects."
