birth control
"Hello, Ive had Nexplanon for four years (just got a new one a year ago) and loved it for the first three years.  

I never noticed or realized that it may be due to nexplanon that I've gained 15lbs... I thought it was the stress from Grad school but now I am realizing it may be because of the implant.  I get occasional headaches but not that often.

Overall, I LOVE the convenience of Nexplanon. I love not getting my period often. I love not getting cramps anymore. I have not bled for more than 5 days. So I would definitely say I've enjoyed my time with Nexplanon.

Now I am considering taking it out because of how difficult it is to lose the excess weight. I do crossfit and have not lost any fat... It may be time to say my farewell Nexy."
