Over 2000 Posts JenS Posted February 2, 2004 Over 2000 Posts Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tm....tion_dc I find this to be almost funny if it were not so sad...and wrong in my experience (and my friends). My favorite quote "women tend to gain weight over time whether they are taking the pill or not"! Anyway... gee - why would a pill that is supposed to make your body think it is perpetually pregnant cause you to gain weight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jenny L. Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 I was on BC pills before cushings and It didn't cause fat gain for me. I maybe gained just a couple lbs. of water weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julie65 Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 I have pcos diagnosis and have been on a so called mini-pill (oral progesterone only) for 3 weeks and am losing weight. I didn't expect this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
