I put on 1 stone when I changed my pill. I asked my doctor and they said it increases your appetite. So, while you think you haven't changed your diet you may in fact be eating larger portions than you realise.

Tell me about it. I put on two stone in a year!
I've lost one stone since going back to the gym though.
Get regular exercise, do light weights and high reps for toning. You should also run, eight miles every weekend and it will drop off you!

A stone and a half weight can only be made by your bodyworks system if you fuel it. Whatever else in the equation, GRUB is your problem's main answer. I.e. less of it. Good luck in your efforts, and perseverance at hungry times.

yes the pill does seem to make you put weight on.
you just need to be care full with what you eat really, or try another type of contraception

It is more than likely down to your pill - it affects people in different ways. You should see your G.p who will be able to change your pill

It maybe the pill, however it could also be stress, most people lose weight from stress but somepeople gain weight from it.

unfortunately the pill does make you put weight on . your doctor should have made you aware of that when you started. i put the same amount on when i went on the pill.

it's a myth that the pill makes you put on weight.
it is more likely to do with your age or something to do with your thyroid. go to the doctors who will send you for a blood test...
