"I have had nexplanon for 6 months. Having it put in was painless, I had a little bruising and was a little sore for a few days but nothing bad. It was a little swollen and warm, which was to be expected, it healed over well. For the first two months, about a third of the time I had spotting. Since then(last 4 months) I've only had a few days of spotting, hoping it stays that way. For the first 4 months, I suffered horrible hot flashes constantly, now they have tapered off. What I really don't like about it is the awful body acne its given me, and for this reason I am considering having it taken out, but I do really like how convenient and effective it is."
