Difficult.: While it may be a factor in your weight gain there would then need to be some consideration as to what to do re contraception. A talk with the GP may be useful here. Plus you may need investigating for other medical causes of weight gain

Weight gain: Weight gain is without doubt one of the most significant side effects of implants. You need to discuss the pros and cons of the various contraceptives before getting the implant removed
