The Pill+weight gain

This is just a general question regading the Pill and weight gain. How many of you have gained weight while on the Pill? How much (if you don't mind sharing, sorry if too personal)? If you didn't gai weight, did you change your eating habits at all? Any other info regarding this topic would be helpful as well! Thanks!

Re: The Pill+weight gain

When I was on the pill I didn't gain alot. I found that I was really moody and emotional. My acne cleared up and my periods were regulated , but I never gained much weight.Maybe a few pounds at th most.

Re: The Pill+weight gain

I have been on pill for 13 years. I have never gained weight, one time I switched to a different type my breasts swelled for two months or so, and they were very tender. I have also experienced moodiness on the pill.
