A member asked:
I have been on the 3 month injection but have gained weight everyone suggesting the implant, do you think this might be a better solution or will i continue to gain weight?

Birth control ?'s: Using a progesterone implant, or the "depo" version of progesterone injection will not make one gain weight. Weight gain is strictly an imbalance of calories ingested vs. calories used. Try reduction of carbohydrates (bread, rice, sweets, etc.) .
