how to combat hormonal contraceptives side effects?

Question

I just got nexaplon inserted today and I'm expecting side effects sooner or later. I've taken pills before and I experienced intense mood swings, breakouts and bloating. It may be a different experience but I want to know how you ladies manage these side effects.

Answer

Ok so I got nexplanon in May , had it inserted on day 5 of my period. Had to continue taking my pills for 7 days then had a withdrawal bleed in June. Bled from August to late September, and then nothing and then bled from the start of Dec up until now. Honestly tho the first 5 months I felt nothing other than the irregular bleeding but now I feel bloating, acne and mood swings.
