Birth control question

[peppersnot.livejournal.com]

Hey everyone! I just have a quick question about birth control. I looked through the archives and I didn't find anything that could answer my question, so here I am.

Is there a birth control pill out there that will not cause weight gain?

Thanks muchly :)

well, birth control pills don't techinally cause weight gain in the first place. Some girls gain weight, and some don't. I didn't gain any weight on any of the pills i was on. But the best known pill to use to avoid weight gain is Yasmin. If you have anymore questions feel free to visit us over at birthcontrol

Yes. Most of them.

Each girl reacts differently. Some lose weight, some gain, some stay the same. There's no pill that will definately not make you gain. Sorry :(

I just started to take OTC last week and my doctor says that weight gain doesn't always occur while on the pill. She also says that it occurs mostly in women who are susceptible to gaining weight anyway (although I don't know how accurate that is) and that if you excercise there shouldn't be a problem. In fact, in the book "What Your Mother Never Told You About Sex," it says that you are just as susceptible to losing weight as you are to gaining. So, every girl is different, in that respect. :)
