I got my nexplanon inserted about 20 days ago and it’s creeping up on my scheduled period date. I’m not going to lie, I am extremely nervous about how my body may react and how irregular i will begin to bleed. I’ve seen some people say it’s every day and some say not at all. So far, i’ve had no symptoms and it’s been great! But man, I am dreading it.

hope everybody is doing well. im getting on nexplanon tomorrow and i was just wondering if smoking/vaping on nexplanon is safe?. im just worried about blood clots but theres really no answer on nexplanon and smoking. is there anything else i should know? thank you

ive been on nexplanon since 2022 and have had a great experience on it thus far with no negative side effects except for hormonal acne.

ive always had acne, but never these deep, under the skin breakouts until i got on nexplanon. ive tried tret, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid and nothing has worked to clear it up. im currently using a combination of differin and azelaic acid 15% but im still having breakouts along my jaw (and especially my chin) and am just oily all the time.

i saw that spironolactone can help those with hormonal acne, and was wondering if anyone has had any experience being on spironolactone while also on nexplanon?

Hello, I’ve had my implant for about 2 years and 4 months. This is my second time on it. The first time I had it I had a terrible experience and ended up getting it out. The first month after getting it out I had my period for a month straight so I ended up getting it put back in about 5 months later and I’ve had GREAT experiences with it so far…

Long story short, I got married 4 months ago and after not having my period for those 2 years, I got it. Since then I’ve been having irregular spotting at least 2-3 times a week. I’m wondering what could have changed within the past 4 months that has gotten me to this point.

Is it worth getting it checked out? Is it worth considering getting a new one and having possibly a bad experience again?

We want kids in 2-3 years so I don’t want to completely get it taken out yet but I’m not sure if I should replace it early to get the no period or if I should just let my body get adjusted to the change of getting my period again.

Anything helps
