A member asked:
I have the nexplanon implant. i've spotted since halloween. have gotten my actual period. what should i do. wait it out?

Yes: Halloween wasn't so long ago, so it is perfectly normal to be having irregular bleeding at this point. In fact, it would be odd if you were not having any irregular bleeding so soon after insertion. Periods and spotting can remain irregular for a good 6 months but more often normalize after 2-3. Speak to your doc if bleeding is very heavy or very bothersome, but otherwise give it time.
