Nexplanon
"I'm scrolling through the reviews of this birth control and I feel as if everyone is really magnifying the weight gain. I personally have lost 30 pounds from starting it a year and a half ago. The weight gain comes from cravings, the same type you have when you're on your period. If you are aware of these cravings and don't consistently over eat you won't gain weight. My Dr. told me that from the get go and I think it made me more conscious of the fact. I have had sporadic bleeding but nothing a light tampon couldn't handle. It was a minor set back but less of a setback than getting pregnant. Also, if the Dr. couldn't find it for removal, it was put in wrong. I can literally feel mine under my skin when I touch it."
