    I've been on birth control for maybe about 10 years now & it did cause me to gain weight. But after my body got used to it, I didn't gain anymore. So I had a few extra pounds to lose.

    I think it affects people in different ways but it certainly did make me gain weight - when I went onto the Pill I gained almost a stone in two months and when I came off it, I lost it again. My doctor insisted it was coincidence but I suspect not!
