A member asked:
Can a low dose bcp pill give you less side effects like ex weight gain mood swings plz as i'm not sure which to choose i don't want weight gain on bcp?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good news: None of the birth control pills are associated with weight gain so it won't matter which one you choose. The only method linked to weight gain is Depoprovera and that is through hunger stimulation.
