Has any ever taken Co-cyprindiol, if so what where your experiences?
Side effects?
Possible weight gain?

    Many hormonal birth control does have weight gain as a possible side effect and this is no different: https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/files/pil.7236.pdf

    Weight gain from medication happens several ways:
    1. Water retention
    2. Increased appetite
    3. Decreased energy

    So if this is otherwise the method for you, those can possibly be worked around.

    My favorite method of contraception is a partner with a vasectomy :smiley:
