"I'm writing this because I feel like I had a weird experience with this BC. I used Nexplanon for 1 year and 7 months before cutting it out.
1st year and 2mos w/ Nexplanon: 24yo Female, perfect skin; absolutely no blemishes, let alone acne, ever, highly motivated, bodybuilder/overall healthy lifestyle, no periods or negative side effects

After 1y3mos with Nexplanon: Mood swings, overnight cystic bacne from my neck to my hips, craving fatty/sugary foods all the time, no motivation, weight gain. Tried spironolactone with a RX body wash and cream, but it didn't help the acne at all.

Almost 2months after removing Nexplanon: no depression/mood swings, motivated again, no more cravings, bacne almost entirely cleared up, feeling like myself!"
