Top 3 Reasons I wouldn’t NOT go back on BC 🤰

Heyyy My name is Mia. I have been on Birth Control, specifically Nexplanon, for about 7 months now.

I love my birth control and am very happy I made the decision to get the implant instead of the pill b/c it assures that I won’t get pregnant anytime soon, It is worry free, and it’s only for 3 years.

BUT, these things have been issues I have struggled with since being on Birth Control and makes me really consider if I would do it again.

1. I gained a decent amount of weight. About 15-20lbs of Weights that I am not super happy with. I went from being an athlete who was 115lbs to now averaging 135. Now it isn’t terrible, but it shot my confidence wayy down. My clothes don’t fit anymore and I feel so out of place when wearing clothes that in the past would have made me feel like a badass 😙

2. My skin went crazy after I went on BC. I have never had terrible acne to begin with, but once I was on BC I had to redo my entire routine for my skin and hair.

3. My mental health was impacted a lot. Now I have prior mental health issues that also impacted this, but it sometimes really pushed it over the edge especially during the times I was suppose to get my period. I would always feel so empty and lost like I was missing something and would breakdown completely. It really does take a toll on you and your everyday life.

With that said though I also appreciate my BC so much as it has done its job in preventing pregnancy!!

WOOP WOOP 🙌 And I would recommend nexplanon to anyone who is considering BC and doesn’t know which one to do. I find it really helpful and isn’t a hassle at all and also gets the job done. But again I don’t know if I will get it again after this one is done.

Be blessed babe 😚 MWAH
