Birth Control
"I had Nexplanon inserted 6 weeks postpartum. The insertion was easy pretty painless and it only bruised for a couple of days. I&#039;ve only had it for 4 months the first month I had a pretty heavy period it lasted for 6 days but it was bearable. I haven&#039;t had a cycle since that first month though. I have noticed a little weight gain but not a lot. What I would say is the most annoying is that around the time I should get my period I&#039;m very annoyed and have pretty bad headaches and my arm itches like crazy where the rod is inserted other than that I&#039;ve had no complaints."
