What birth control pill will not cause weight gain?

Patient's question:

I have taken a lot of birth control pills and have only finished one dose before taking another. My body is getting fatter and fatter, and I don't know if it's a side effect of the medication or due to my diet because I haven't seen a doctor yet. What birth control pills will not make you gain weight?

Doctor's answer:

Is oral contraception likely to cause weight gain? This varies from person to person. The response to the same type of contraception also differs among individuals. There are two factors contributing to weight gain: one is not true weight gain, such as edema; the other is actual weight gain. Some people recover and return to normal, and it will not continue to gain weight. It is recommended not to rely solely on oral contraception and to consider other methods of birth control. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
