A member asked:

I will take birth control pills (2, 5 mg nomegestrol + 1, 5 estradiol), but i'm very afraid because i don't want weight gain, how can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low dose pills: Contraceptive pills containing very low doses of Estradiol (synthetic estrogen) tend to minimize or eliminate weight gain.
