Yup very common on Nexplanon actually 😅 One of the biggest side effects is irregular periods — some people spot nonstop, some skip periods completely, some suddenly get very light periods. If your pregnancy test is negative and the implant is still in properly, pregnancy chance is really very low 😊 Usually doctors only ask to retest again in 1–2 weeks if period still doesn’t come or if you start having pregnancy symptoms. I had friends on Nexplanon who didn’t get periods for months also 😭 The hormones can really mess with the cycle.
