birth control
"I am about to finish up my fifth pack of Lo-Loestrin.  Lately I've been noticing a weight gain, even though I have changed my diet and started working out 3-4 times a week.  I have gained about 10 lbs in the last 4 months and continue to gain 1lb per week.  At first I didn't think it could have anything to do with this pill, now I'm starting to wonder.  My skin has been clearer and I have not had a period or bleeding at all since I started this pill.  But the weight gain is a big deal for me.  My breasts have gotten bigger and are a lot more tender.  Mood swings have been tremendous, didn't notice a change in sex drive.  I think everyone is different and every birth control you take is going to affect each woman differently."
