I had the implant after having my daughter 4 years ago. I was a dress size 10 before having her and am now in a tight 14. Before my daughter i never had to worry about weight. After having her i had the implant fitted and like you, all was fine then i started getting irregular periods. I still have not managed to shift my baby weight, not without want of trying. I have tried most diets out there but none seem to work or last. I had the implant out in feb and since doing so i have gainned another 4kg's. Nothing i do seems to help. The nurse said i should try to loose the gained weight before i have No 2 but i only seem to be gaining more. I wished i could you better advise but i am in the same boat as you.

hi im a 21 year old with a 3 year old son. shortly after giving birth to my son i got the implanon implant. all was fine until about a year and a half ago when i started to get very irregular periods and put on alot of weight (almost 20kgs!) and although i have lost about half the waight i put on i cant seem to get rid of the rest. Its made me very depressed and i just dont feel like myself. i even thought i was pregnant until i did a test. i am getting the implant out in a week and i was just wondering if anyone has experienced wat i have with the weight gain and if it will come off easier wen i get the implant out? id love to hear from other people who have had this problem......

yes, the implant does make you put on weight which os the last thing u want after given birth. I`ve put weight on, which I can`t get rid of and it`s making me so depressed. I`m having it taken out on monday

hope all gets better for both of us soon
