birth control
"I got the implanon in 2014 and for a long time I loved it. It's a highly effective method of birth control, and for almost a year I had no period. But then my period started back up again, happening at weird times and happening for WEEKS at a time. Sometimes I'd get off my period and then and up bleeding the next week. It was terrible. But what was worse was the weight gain. I probably gained 20 pounds. I actually do exercise frequently. I walk almost every night for about 3 miles and then a few times a week I'll go to the gym. But I wasn't losing any weight! And it gave me acne like all the time. 10/10 would not recommend."
