weight gain after stopping birth control pills?

did anyone gain any weight after they stopped taking birth control pills?

i stopped in April and at first I was fine, but the last month i've had an extra 4 or 5 pounds that I cannot lose. Someone had told me you lose weight after you stop taking them but that is not happening.

I probably gained about 4-5 pounds after stopping them. I wasn't too upset since I knew girls that had gained 10-15

Oiy, I've already gained 10lbs over the last year, before stopping the pill. I HOPE I do not gain weight now that I've gone off the pill. I've been off for a month, and haven't gained, but I haven't lost either Chat Icon

Re: weight gain after stopping birth control pills?

Oh I definitely gained weight after stopping the pill.

But then I've also gained weight because I eat when I get depressed and this process takes a lot of out me.

So I'm not sure where the main weight gain is coming from. Chat Icon

I'm not sure. Maybe the hormonal shift?

I think I actually dropped a few pounds when I stopped BCPs. But I did gain some when I had started them.

Re: weight gain after stopping birth control pills?

Maybe it depends on the type of BC you were on?

I dropped weight when I started Orthotricyclen and gained weight when I stopped it.

Re: weight gain after stopping birth control pills?

Thankfully I haven't. It's been since the end of January since I stopped them and the only thing that has changed is that I am getting small breakouts on my face :(

This happened to me when I went off of it last April. I did watch my diet and exercise regular and the weight came off.
