Hello,
Just relax. Nothing is wrong and its only a common side effect of Nexplanon. Frequency and intensity of bleeding during menstrual cycles are also affected by Nexplanon.
Breast enlargement and pain usually go away as your body starts getting used to Nexplanon.
Still, you can consult the healthcare specialist once.there is no need to worry and Nexplanon isn't going to harm you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
