Just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this… I’ve had nexplanon for 2 months, and I know it can either make periods heavier, lighter or stop all together. Since I had it fitted, I’ve not had a proper “period”, only brown spotting that lasts 1-2 days. It’s completely irregular and doesn’t happen once a month, it’s usually every couple of weeks, sometimes closer together. Is that normal? I keep worrying myself that it’s implantation bleeding or something even though it’s 99% effective and I barely have sex 😂

When I first got it it stopped my period completely, maybe with a random day here and there. But after the covid shot, it completely messed that up. I started periods again and would bleed for weeks at a time to go months with no period. Also when I did have sex it would trigger a period, which has never happened to me before that birth control. It was just very irregular

I was bleeding for 6months straight on it and had it taken out.
