Answers:
I've never gained any weight on bcps!. Everyone is different though, my metabolism is pretty high!. If your worried about weight gain while taking the pill, I'd talk to your doctor!. He/she will be able to prescribe a bcp that is right for you and that will cause minimal to no weight gain!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Any female with estrogen dominance (too much of the estrogens hormones-out of balance) will put on weight, but mostly fluids because estrogen causes edema!. It also causes sore breasts, rapid growth of fibroid tumors, and fibrocystic breasts!.
A girl who is overweight by at least 10% is developing or already has estrogen dominance!. That's a strike against her!. By adding a birth control pill regimen that contains a lot of estrogen, she's adding insult to injury!. If you fall into either of these categories, ask your physician to explain how much estrogen is in the pill/patch, and to change the prescription to a lower dose!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I did a lot of research on this before I went on the pill (I am using YAZ and would reccamend it)!. It is fairly common to gain anywhere from 5-20 pounds on the pill, but not everyone does!. (I didn't)!. It really depends on the female and how her body reacts to the pill!. If you end up gaining a lot of weight, you can always try switching to a different brand or trying a lower dosage!. Again, I would reccamend YAZ!. good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
