theres no answer for this.....you could say all birth controls make you gain weight....BUT thats only for some women. some women gain weight on Some birth controls. so just becuase a woman gains weight on like depo...does not mean you will. or just because you gain weight on ortho tricyclen lo...does not mean another woman will

your doctor will have to help you and you will likely try different brith controls...medication effects people differently

It all depends on how the BC interacts with your body. Each persons body is different so it will react in different ways to different meds. You need to talk to your doctor about your options.
