Hello dear
Understand your concern.
Two reason in your case
1. Pregnancy
2. Hormonal imbalance, as side effects of nexplanon

You should confirm the pregnancy by Blood HCG level or by USG after consult the gynecologist.
Also note the side effects of nexplanon:
Irregular menstruation/Delyed/ Prolonged bleeding due to hormonal imbalce
Migraine
Mood changes
Possible weight gain
Ovarian cysts
Pregnancy
Acne

Wait for some day
If bleeding will not come
Consult the gynecologist:
Do the following tests:
Hormonal profile
Endometrial biopsy
Ovarian follicle study
USG
PAP smear

Do regular exercise
Avoid stress/alcohol/caffeine
Take fruits like papaya, orange and pomegranate
Take proper rest
Keep you busy in think that you like
