Need some encouragement - 2 months in

Side Effects

Hi all I feel so frustrated. I've had nexplanon for almost 9 weeks and I don't feel like I'm seeing much improvement.

My current bleeding episode has lasted almost two weeks with spotting the first week and now and on and off light period with some days being all brown discharge. It feels never ending.

The last few bleeding episodes I've only gotten a few days of no bleeding just for it to start again.

I want to give it some time since I had great success my first time with the implant but I also feel so worried it's never going to end and get better. Has anyone else been through something similar? Is it too early still to feel discouraged?
