i take the pills and have never had acne or gain weight i don’t think it’s the method i think it’s individual based🩷 what might work for you might not work for others but i like taking the pill

I take the pill (blisovi) and have had a good experience. No changes in acne, and while I did gain some weight, it’s almost certainly connected to a different change in lifestyle. Also I usually don’t get a period at all, which is great bc I started taking it for cramps

I also have multiple friends who have the Nexplanon, and they like it. It’s low maintenance, but it is an implant, so if the idea of that or feeling it in your arm skeeves you out, it may not be for you. When they first got it, they had spotting for a long time, but now generally don’t get a period.
