Birth Control
"I have had this IUD for a few weeks. I&#039;ve always struggled with weight gain W/hormones. I can&#039;t take estrogen. On the depo, I gained 30 pounds in 3 months. Then I tried the paragard, no weight gain, but excruciating pain every day for the year I had it in (suspecting an allergy), then I tried nexplanon, thinking it was less hormones, lots of people like it. Gained that same 30 pounds back, but over 8 months instead of 3 before I discontinued. I also had awful anxiety and no sex drive. That said, besides cramping, I&#039;ve had zero side effects so far with lilletta. No weight gain, no anxiety, normal libido. And for those who don&#039;t know, there are several chemically different progestins. Maybe one works for you, another doesn&#039;t. DO YOUR RESEARCH."
