Just a bit off topic. Sorry.

Has anyone else noticed a little weight gain on BCPs after being assured by so called professionals that this particular product would have no side effects? I'm not interseted in article quotes. I've read them. I'd really like to jear from people with similar experiences.

No, I was on Yasmin for 6 yrs and never noticed any weight gain. I liked how I felt on it...light periods, no cramps....but I regret being on it, it has really messed my cycles up, which really sucks now that hubby and I are trying to have kids.

What brand did you take? My BCP caused no weight gain at all. This is because they contain a smaller or weaker amount of hormones.

yeah, i don't remember if i even gained weight, like i said.. i could have gained or lost weight for any reason, i have a terrible diet and have always been up and down, haha... anyway, i've been taking yaz for quite a while now, i think i started with ortho-trycyclene lo (however you spell that, lol)
