A member asked:
Which of this two pills can produce more weight gain: norethindrone 1mg and etinilestradiol 0, 035mg or nomegestrol 2, 5 mg and estradiol 1, 5 mg. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neither: Birth control pills do not cause weight gain. That is myth. In fact studies show that more women lose weight on birth control pills. Weight gain is related to diet and exercise not birth control pills. Depoprovera can lead to weight gain by stimulating the appetite causing one to eat more.
