Is ortho cyclen known for weight gain and is it similar to cryselle?

Both also contain progestins, and are monophasic agents.To reduce weight gain , increase physical activity /reduce caloric intake ( reduce portion size) reduce fatty foods, increase veggies/ fruits, always remember to practice safe sex .Use condoms. Stay safe.
