Can Femilon Cause Weight Gain?

default
Posted on Tue, 11 Apr 2017
Question: I am using femillon since last one year as a contraceptive. I have also gained a lot of weight in the same period but I never connected it to femillon. But lately I have realized I don't even eat that much to gain so much. Is it because of femillon? If yes what other contraceptive pill should I use?

Brief Answer:
Not related to Femilon

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to HCM.
Thanks for writing in to us with your health concerns.

Femilon doesnot cause weight gain. Did your physical activity reduced over this time? I would also advise you to get your thyroid hormone test.Reduced levels of thyroid hormone leads to unexplained weight gain.
