birth control
"I absolutely hate this birth control method! I had the implant placed in May 2015 right before I left to college. First 3 months I was fine. Then it got awful. My periods prior lasted 3-4 days and were super light. Now they last 20-24 days and are relatively heavy. I never had acne in my life and now I get major breakouts and my back now has bacne!! Not to mention that when I got this inserted I was 128. I'm 5'3 btw. And I was a 3 sport athlete. Very in shape and muscular. I never had a problem losing weight, ever! I could always bounce back and be fit. From when I started college in August 2015 to the end of freshman year may 2016 I gain 8 pounds. So I was 136. Now I'm 166. In 2 years 40lb gain! I cannot lose weight to save my life! :("
