I was on the pill before surgery. But stopped about 2 weeks before. I'm not on anything right now. And I'm afraid the pill will affect my weight loss. What's your experience with weight loss post op??? HELPP

      I am getting the implanon next week before I start my journey. The doctor said that it would be safe.

    I was on the pill (Trinessa) right after surgery & had no issues. I've switched to the Depo & still no issues. I prefer the Depo cause it's like get it & forget it. If your concern is possibly gaining weight on BC, think about how much weight you'll gain if you get preggo! Yikes!
