I also gained soooo much weight while on them. I started taking them in Jan. and by that summer I couldn't fit into my shorts from the year before and by that winter I had gone from a size 7 to about an 11.
BUT THE WORST PART WAS MY LOSE OF MY SEX DRIVE!!!!!!!!!! After that my husband and I both agreed I needed to do something else.
I told my doctor about it and he tried me on a different type of pill, said it wasn't as strong or something as the first ones I was on, but they didn't work either.
I know they work for some people just not me. And i hope if you do take them that you don't experience the horror that I did.

Oh my... sorry to hear... does not sound like fun. Maybe the patch would have worked better??
I can't imagine losing my sex drive.... *shudders*

Yikes, the weight-gain is to that kind of extreme?....but was there a change in diet..anywhere in between?.. Or was it just..all of a sudden, you got gained pounds on everything you swallowed?..
That sounds bad..
And out of curiousity, did your boobs shrink back to what it was before? or stayed after you got off the pill? haha..just curious..
SiGhz..i dunoo, it seems that many of you had a very bad experience with the pill.... but it seem like its such a good option, at least as a backup....if anything happens...
Still deciding...... what to do wat to do.......

I recommend going to a doctor and telling her/him about your concerns and then just trying something to see how it goes. If you have some side effects that make you too uncomfortable, or ones you simply don't want, then you can always switch to another pill or try the patch or something... or just forget the whole deal. Risk vs. Reward I suppose.
