Nexplanon implant
I would have spotting for weeks, sometimes for 3 weeks and then it would stop for a couple of months. After about 2 years my periods returned every 6 weeks with incredibly painful ovulation pain mid cycle. It definitely caused an increase in my anxiety and depression but didn’t realise until I had it removed.
