Im on kariva to regulate my period. I just have a random question. Would it cause my breasts to get bigger, and to gain weight?

I've taken kariva since 2002. When I started I weighed 100 lbs (I am 5'6) and was somewhere between a B and C. In the last 4 years I have gained maybe 12 lbs and a full cup size. (I think the weight gain is more due to being less active--I did lots of sports in high school, and I graduated in 2002). Another good things..My periods are very light and last only 3 days (wed-fri, I am "sunday start").

I have been on Kariva for 3 years now and I love it!! I have actually lost weight and yes.....my boobs have grown some too! I was a C cup before and I'm still a C cup now, but I can defenitely tell that my boobs are more pronounced than before (I have a little more cleavage now! :p ) LOL! But hey....I'm not complaining!
