birth control
"I've had Nexplanon for 2 years now and it has been wonderful. My doctor numbed my arm when I got it implanted so there was no physical pain. My arm was a tad sore after the numbing medication wore off, but only for a day or two at most. The soreness wasn't anything serious either. I didn't have any physical side effects from the implant at all. I did not gain weight, I did not get acne, my hair didn't get more oily, and I didn't cramp. After about a month of having it in, my period was due and I bled a little longer than usual. After bleeding for about 11 days, I spotted for about 7 more days. After that month of bleeding and spotting, I haven't had a period since. I am engaged and my fiance finished inside of me, I have not gotten pregnant"
