Birth Control
"I&#039;m one of the lucky ones. I&#039;ve had the Nexplanon for 3 months with no side effects. It&#039;s effective, and I love it. Initially, right after injection my hair got a little oily and I felt very fatigued, but that went away after a few days (I&#039;m assuming that&#039;s because the hormones are most intense in the beginning). I had it inserted at the end of my period. My period has been very regular, coming in once a month. I did have a little spotting, each time about a week before my period for a few days. But it would stop, I&#039;d have a bit of a break, and then I would have a period for 2-3 days. No weight gain. My mood is fine. No increase in acne. However, I tend to react well to hormonal birth control (no side effects with the pill or Plan B)."
