Birth Control
"I&#039;ve had my implant in for 7 months. Despite being anxious about weight gain, I was able to meet my weight loss goal of 10 lbs. Acne was a problem for the first few months but eventually cleared itself up. The main problem has been breakthrough bleeding, which went on for 4 months. My doctor finally prescribed the pill (Yaz) to help. I&#039;ve gone through two months of the pill with my implant in and weened myself off of it until the bleeding was gone. Admittedly it wasn&#039;t fun at times, especially for the first few months, but sticking with it for awhile will be worth not having to worry about pregnancy and possibly not having another period for awhile, or at least being regular."
