Once you went of BCP did you lose weight?
I cannot take the weight gain any longer! I am not TTC but I think I really can't take being on BCP anymore

Re: Once you went of BCP did you lose weight?
I lost about a pound and I'm convinced it was water weight/bloat. I was on the pill for 10 years and never realized the effects it was having till I went off...not only the bloat but sex drive as well

Re: Once you went of BCP did you lose weight?
I dunno it has always been my thought that initially when a woman goes on the pill, she will gain a little bit of weight. Over time, it evens out and she gains more weight simply because she eats too much. I gained A LOT of weight and I HAPPENED to be on the pill. Perhaps the hormones increase appetite to some extent but once I was on the pill for a significant period of time, I knew that it was my eating habits that got me where I was. I know this may not be a popular response or opinion but it is how I feel.

I gained weight. My sister went off BCP a little before me and she said she feels like she's gained too.

I completely agree.
I have been off BC since last December, my weight has gone up and down just as it did when I was on BC.
I honestly don't think it had an effect on me either way.

Re: Once you went of BCP did you lose weight?
I didn't lose any weight when I went off it. I did however, feel a difference when it was that time of the month.
AF was the worst I ever experienced.

Re: Once you went of BCP did you lose weight?
I lost weight when I stopped them. My weight has always been pretty stable, so I can definitely attribute the loss to stopping the BCPs.
