Birth Control
"I had my nexplanon inserted in Jan of this year. 2016. It&#039;s now June and luckily I get it out 1 week from today and am getting my tubes tied and endometrial ablation(so I don&#039;t have period) due to the side effects of this. Like others stated it is effective in not getting you pregnant BUT I too am like a lot of others who have a period constantly with maybe 1-2 days off after about 2 straight weeks then back on. It&#039;s inconsistent and I&#039;m always on. That&#039;s not the only HORRIBLE part... SECOND, it&#039;s super heavy. Like gushing within 30 min of a changing tampon. I have to wear super tampons (which hurt) and a pad and I still end up changing underwear all day! My husband is just as frustrated as I am. I&#039;m moody. Migraines. Backaches. Horrible!"
