Hello,
Though the best remedy for menorrhagia while on Nexplanon is its removal, as you are not willing for the same; you require hormone therapy with norethisterone and supportive molecules as tranexamic acid for controlling the acute blood loss. Later on depending upon the hormone alteration, your OBGYN will prescribe you regular medicines as well.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
