birth control
"This is my second time around using Nexplanon. First time wasn't so bad. For the first couple of months I did not see my period which was something that they explained, and then when I did get my period it was very irregular. I also gained weight which was not so bad, I went from 155 lbs to 165lb. I lasted three years with it without getting pregnant which was great since those were the only two side effects I really had to endure. So I decided to go back on it for this time 4 years. What a big mistake!!! First of I am four months in and I have not stopped spotting. I also gained about 20 lbs that have been so hard for me to lose. I've been exercising and just recently turned into a vegan, but still have not been able to shed the extra pounds!"
