A member asked:
Bleeding after the first week of nexplanon? had protected sex could i be pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Bleeding is a common side effect of Nexplanon, and not a reason to think you're pregnant. If the Nexplanon was inserted by the fifth day of a period, it's effective immediately, and pregnancy is highly unlikely.
