Brief Answer:
Side effects of nexplanon

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Nexplanon implant is associated with the side effects like irregular spotting and bleeding, bloating, cramps etc.
This is due to the progesterone content of the nexplanon implant.
There is nothing to worry about it.
