Nexplanon
birth control
"I'm a college student in her third semester, and my dad had me get the Nexplanon because it seemed to be the most convenient. I've been living with my boyfriend now for about a year, and things have changed since I've gotten the implant inserted August 2014. At first, I had no periods; it was great. Then, it was a couple of months after the insertion that I suddenly had a period for 2 months straight. The frustrating thing about it was that it wasn't even enough for a full tampon; I was spotting for weeks. I ruined so many pairs of underwear now and leaked some nights in bed because I thought the flow had gotten lighter or that it ended since it stopped for a day. It works, but I think I might switch to pills instead."
