Weight gain after going off the pill (ladies)

Options
So I stopped my pill about a week after Tom because I was having horrible side effects (wanting to faint hair falling out) and my Tom returned and stopped now, its been about a week and a half since I have stopped it and I have gained 3.5kgs its really starting to stress me out anyone else have this problem and did it resolve over time :)

    I'm planning on going off of my pill (that i've been on for more than a decade now) in the next year, and a little curious about responses here, so bump.

    I've never gained weight going off of them.

    It is most likely the hormone changes in your body and water weight. Unless you have changed what you eat/how much exercise you do it's not actual fat weight.
