A member asked:
Need expert opinion on when gaining weight from the birth control pill-is it water weight or actual fat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Weight issues: Studies suggest that women that go on birth control pills can either gain weight, not gain weight or remain the same. Most people that gain weight are looking for answers why. Taking medication at around the same time can give a suggested connection. However most likely one does not exist.
