    I'm not a women, but from what I heard depending on the hormones in there you can either gain some or lose some...

    It all depends on the person. I"ve been on the shot, and 2 different kinds of pills. ALl of them had the side effect of possible weight gain. I didn't gain an ounce. As with all possible side effects, it varies with each body. One, however, made me emotional as hell. Would have taken weight gain over that experience.

    what pill were you all on when you gained weight. i just started microgynon 30 a couple of days ago and have heard from friends that it is the worst one for making you put on weight

    I put on a stone and a dress size, but hey thats life :p Although i don't know if the pill is entirely to blame it seems a bit unfair of me to blame it without any proof or anything, it could just be that my metabolism naturally changed, or something.

    yes it can. depends on the person though. some do, some don't. i have got a bit of chub that i didn't have before but i shouldn't use the pill as an excuse and get my arse down the gym really!
