I've been on birth control for about a year now, and I'm 17. And my periods have actually gotten lighter and I have little to no cramps at all. But certain birth control pills can cause weight gain. I know the kind I'm taking does, but I've been working to get rid of the weight I already had so I haven't noticed anything as far as that goes. If I were you I'd go see the gyno and talk to him/her about your problems with your birth control. And ask about switching a.s.a.p.
