Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
If there is no history of sexual intercourse, then the chances of pregnancy are nil.
Moreover, nexplanon has the side effect of irregular spotting or bleeding.
It can be red or Brown, and can start anytime after nexplanon insertion.
There is absolutely nothing to worry.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
