My doctor told me that the hormone in birth control can alter your weight by 5-7 lbs. I asked because I was concerned about gaining weight. If you gain or lose more than 5-7 lbs, then it's something else, not the birth control.

Sure, although more than about 5 pounds and it's not the pill, but some other lifestyle change. The hormones in the pill can change your appetite or how much water you typically retain... most people tend to gain weight on the pill, but weight loss is also a possibility.
