does birth control cause weight gain?

Question

I heard the pill makes you fat is that true? Also does it cause acne?

Answer

BC pills can make it easier for you to gain weight with side effects like increased appetite, increased water retention, change in metabolism, and fatigue. But the BC itself will not add fat to your body, it cannot directly put weight on your body.
BC changes your hormones so there are a lot of possible ways it could change your body. It could reduce or increase or do nothing to how much acne you have.
