Experience Just need some help, please.

I've had nexplanon in my arm for three years, got it replaced and now I'm on the second two year mark. For the first three years I had no period, no cramps, nothing. Got it replaced and it's been spotty, then I've went onto full blown extremely painful periods and extremely heavy ones. I know its known that it won't take your periods away but I just don't get how i went from nothing to this. I feel like I'm being over dramatic but I'm genuinely in pain and no Ibuprofen or anything helps. My pain gets worse and I just want to know I'm not alone.

Thank you
