I know that birth control can make you gain weight, but is there any birth control that doesn't

It's a myth that birth control makes you gain weight. Girls have stated that being on birth control has made them gain weight, but it's all rumor. There was never any clear evidence. Girls have complained about retaining water while being on birth control, so the scale would go up & you would weigh more, but you didn't become fatter or anything. Also, some complained of increased appetites, which caused weight gain, but that was from changing their diet & eating more due to their appetite changing. Usually the low dosage birth controls have very few side effects & there's a less chance of weight gain. Talk to your doctor about which birth control is best for you. Everyone is different so everyone has different side effects. There have been cases where birth control has caused weight loss also. Ask your doctor & check out the low dosage birth controls.
