I asked the exact same question to my doctor before I started taking birth control pills!. She told me this is nothing but a myth, derived from the heavy levels of hormones that used to be in oral contraception (think the 1960s)!. I was told it is completely false that my hips would widen and my breasts would grow, and no more than 3 pounds could be blamed on the pill!. With all of the horrible "side effects" I've heard of, I didn't quite believe her; But sure enough, my hips and boobs stayed the same size and I didn't gain any weight!. Some women swear it's the pill that makes them gain weight, so stick with a low-hormone pill like Ortho-Tricyclen Lo or Yaz!. Lower doses of hormones can help with avoiding many of the side effects from birth control pills!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
with the Pill you gain weight, hips widen and boobs grow, as the level of hormones increases
this will happen with any form of contraception where hormones are used - the injection, implant etc
use a condom! and also se your GP as there are lots of types of birth control available and there will be one out there to suit your needsWww@Answer-Health@Com

You may or may not gain weight!. It depends on you, and the pill you are on!. Some women do and some women do not!. Depending on what contraceptive you use, you could gain up to 50 pounds (the shot is notorious for this, I'm a former depo provera user)!. or you may not gain at all!.
