Question by Ellie: What causes weight gain when being on the birthcontrol pill?
I just started taking the birthcontrol pill and I am so afraid to gain weight, the nurses told me the reason women gain weight during their birth control pill is because their appetite gets bigger, but I have also heard that it’s the hormones in the pills that make you gain weight. How do I know which is correct? Thanks

Both. The hormones cause you to have a bigger appetite which cause you to eat more which causes you to gain weight. The way birth control works is by tricking your body into thinking your pregnant. That’s why a lot of women wonder if they’re pregnant even tho they’re on both control.
