Birth Control
"I have not gotten pregnant while on Nexplanon, so that&#039;s good. That being said, I have an appointment with my GYN to see about getting it removed. Before I got the implant, my cycles were very regular (every 27-29 days,lasting about 4-5 days). They warned me when I got the implant my cycle may change or stop; what actually happened is I now run 35-50 days between cycles and they last for 7-12 days. I have also experienced significant weight gain and mood shifts. I suffer from depression, and I&#039;ve felt like I&#039;ve been having a mild episode almost the entire time I&#039;ve had the implant. Also, my face is breaking out like it did when I was in middle school. No thanks."
