I'm kind of leery of using birth control pills because of the possibility of gaining weight (I just got done losing a bunch of weight and I don't want it to fluctuate). :S
What is your experience with the pill? Did you gain a lot of weight once you started it?
Thanks for your help!

I did not see a change in weight when any of my other friends started taking birth control. My doctor told me before I started taking it that there was a slight chance that I might gain weight but it would be 5lbs at most. Before you go on the pill you will have a consultation with either your doctor or a nurse and they will go over all the information you need to know and answer your questions. One thing that I really liked about birth control was that it helped clear up my skin. I was 15 at the time so my hormones were going crazy and I had some mild acne. If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask =] [ courrt7's advice column | Ask courrt7 A Question ]
