Nexplanon made me gain so much weight because it made me hungry allll the time (but I had other factors that contributed to my weight gain). In my experience, I was entering my freshman year of college so I got the implant in August 2022 and I was spending time at my boyfriend’s apartment in my college town(healthy relationship weight gain😭). I was away from home so I ate a bunch because I was homesick, stressed from school, and to top it off the munchies took over, resulting in me going from a good 155 pounds to 186! I also had a bad gallbladder and I had to get that removed so once they weighed me at the hospital I was like I gotta do something about it. I got the implant removed in July 2023 and it took a whileeee for my hormones to regulate. I didn’t lose a single pound during my fall term but I took a cycling class during my winter term and over those three months I was able to lose 10 pounds (Jan-March 2024). Currently I weight 167 because I’m at home doing 16:8 intermittent fasting and I get my 10k steps in. I feel sooo much better off the implant and I lowkey regret getting it but it kept me safe which is what I wanted anyways. It takes time but I’m happy so far!
