Re: Weight gain

The pill made me gain approximately 10-14 lbs (within the first 1-3 months) when I took it. I exercised, watched my diet, etc., and nothing would get rid of those newly acquired pounds! This went on for a few years while taking the pill -- then, I stopped taking the pill and wouldn't you know it, I lost all of those unwanted pounds w/o diet or exercise! So although some may say that the pill doesn't cause weight gain -- in my case, the pill definitely causes weight gain.
