Etonogestrel
"I've been on Nexplanon for 2 years today, so I have another year to go. I love it, but I thought it'd be different than the others. I've been on a journey to find the best birth control for me, and I think I've tried everything. I started off on the pills, but couldn't remember to take it, then the patch that fell off constantly, then the nuvaring that fell out, then the depo shot. This is where I slowly but surely gained weight. 2012 November weight at 110, and in 2013 134lbs. I changed the method to Nexplanon, and this is where I started to notice the no periods, and less hassle. But dramatically my weight increased. I'm currently 155lbs, I exercise and eat right. I can't lose anything. My emotions are through the roof all the time."
