Etonogestrel
"Everything affects everyone differently. With that said I have had the nexplanon for just over a year and I'm not loving it. I had the Mirena for 5 years. No issues and period was very light. 5 years is the max then you need a new one. My doctor who inserted the first one couldn't get the replacement in.  So moved to plan B. My doctor mentioned nexplanon because I didn't like pills or nuvaring. Insertion was easy and pretty painless. They use a local anesthetic.  My doctor thought I would react in a similar manner to the mirena but that hasn't been the case. My skin is oilier, it breaks out, and my period is much heavier. Not to mention I gained 10 lbs. Probably will get it removed once I decide on another option."
