Birth Control
"I had Nexplanon implanted 12/14/15, it&#039;s now 3/30/16, so 3.5 months. My appt to get it out is in 2 days. I hate it. At first I bled nonstop for 7 WKS- literally half the time I&#039;ve had it. Then when the bleeding finally went away (after a separate prescription of hormones) I started gaining weight. I&#039;ve gained 10-15 lbs (I stopped weighing myself- it was too depressing). I haven&#039;t changed my eating habits and even started working out regularly, which I&#039;ve never had to do, and still my weight climbed. In addition, my skin has been horrible. I haven&#039;t had acne since high school, but now I break out all over my face/chest/back. My mood is awful and I have zero sex drive- it&#039;s BC because it makes you never want to have sex. Terrible experience!"
