Hi all,

I've just got back from Drs - just to get a repeat for the pill.

My usual Dr (a man) wasn't there, so i saw a lady Dr instead. She took my blood pressure as usual - everything good. Then asked if i'd put on any weight since going on this type of pill. (i had to change to this type last year because i'm not allowed oestrogen) Told her, actually, yes, i'm always moaning to my normal GP about it. She then showed me the drugs book and it says, right next to the name of the pill i'm on - "can be used to increase appitite if required".

Why the &*%$!!! didn't he tell me!!

I'm now on another type.

Has anyone else has problems with weight gain and the pill??

I had the same problem with my weight when I was on depo, but the dosage is less than the pill, and you only have to remember to have it every 12 weeks! :D
If you stay ready, you won't need to get ready!
