I'm about to switch birth control from the pill to INPLANON and am afraid it will affect my results. Has anyone had this problem?

    I had an IUD inserted a month ago and am still losing weight. Not sure if it is slowed because I haven't been working out as much with my schedule or because of the BC. I'm guessing its the brownies and lack of workouts! I think everyone is different. There was a similar thread I read on here before I had mine done. You should be fine!

    Have you researched Inplanon? Many ladies turn into a head case after taking it. This may cause you problems with losing weight.

    Yeah the reviews were quite mixed- some love it, no periods, no weight gain, no side effects- and others absolutely hated it. I'm willing to give it a try, because now that I am married I don't want to deal with the daily pill routine.

    I'm just wondering if anyone on here has had an experience.
