    Nexplanon: I will have mine removed today

    Hiya,

    I wonder if anyone of the wives here are taking contraceptions?

    Well, mine I had the nexplanon. It is an implant which I had 4 weeks after I had Ace. Now we are planning to have another baby so will have mine removed today.

    Here were my experiences..
    First month I was bleeding heavily for a week. Then it stopped for about 6 months, though I'm breastfeeding continuously up to present.
    After that I've been having spots every other week or a mild migraine once every other month sometimes none at all.
    No weight gain or whatsoever. I'm still a size 8 at 5'6" and still weighing 8 stones and half.
    Life as we make it

    I tried Yasmin before way back 2 years ago. Makes me hungry and grumpy everytime I get hungry.
    For it has similar effects as the nexplanon. Except I don't like to remember taking it. Just me being lazy I guess. Or just don't want my liver to work hard on sifting what I take through my mouth.

    I don't actually experience any side effects on it. I'm usually grumpy when hungry even before I started taking pills..hahaha.. I used to take Diane when I was in the Philippines as the OB prescribed me that since I was also concern about acne/pimples. But when I got here, GP had to replaced that with Yasmin because he said it's not a very good contaceptive because it's more of an acne prevention.

    Hello ladies!

    Guess what? I just had an Nexplanon implanted last saturday which hopefully will keep me safe from getting pregnant for 3 years. I have been having the Depo Injections and no bleeding at all, but mine you I've had such a good appetite..
    The only problem is the side effect for long term used. It decreases your bone density and you will be required to have a bone density scan after 2 or 3 years.
    So we decided to have an implant. It's still a bit sore but it will heal in a few days.

    Glad to know we ladies are being responsible and know what we want and whats best for us. One thing that I would suggest though is not to missed your Pap smear test. Very very important!

    Hey Rayna! Yasmin and Diane have a good positive side effects especially on your skin. Kaya pala Ikaw si Rayna Puti....super hiyang!
    I tried taking the pills but unfortunately is not for me aside from being forgetfull it gives me such a splitting headache.

    Hahaha..But I don't want to get whiter! I already got enough from my dad's genes! Good thing I never had any bad side effects with the pills..I have a friend who always got a headache when she was using Diane so she had to change it.

    Oh dear o'dear!
    You know what that means yeah?
    If that thing is expired its no longer effective and will need additional precaution.

    Its a little rod being implanted underneath the woman's arm. It changes the reproductive hormone like estrogen or progesteron not make her pregnant. In short its a contracentive.
