does taking a birth control pill make u gain weight?

Question

??????

Answer 1

Yes, it can cause some women to gain weight. The reason this occurs is because of the hormones in the medication. The weight gain is mostly that of water. I would recommend checking with your doctor as well to see what they say.

Answer 2

It depends on the pill. Some can make you retain water, some can lead to increased appetite and weight gain. Yasmin is a good option for those worried about gaining weight as users don't tend to experience this side effect as much as on other pills.
