The Nexplanon implant lasts 3 years. There is no evidence that they every stop working early. Irregular menstrual periods are typically caused by stress, weight loss/gain, new exercise program or other lifestyle changes that can cause hormonal fluctuations. Talk to you OB/Gyn about these new symptoms and seek recommendations for additional treatment.
