birth control
"At first I thought this was the best thing ever. For the first year and a half I had rare spotting but I gained about 15 pounds. I attributed my weight gain to my diet, but after the year and a half the bleeding became more frequent and I changed my diet and exercised. I'm having it taken out early (about 6 months) because I am experiencing almost constant bleeding. It's unbearable. I have gained nearly 35 pounds in two and a half years and it's impossible to lose weight. I just keep gaining and spotting all the time. Everybody is different, but I would caution anyone planning on getting this form of birth control."
