Gaining Weight, Size Of Chest And Hips Increased. Skipped Taking Femilon Tablets. Advice?
Hi I missed to consume femilon tab after getting my periods last month for the first three days & then I decided to skip the tablets for the entire month. I have not conceived, neither I want to right now but the problem is that I have gained weight. The size of my chest & hips have increased suddenly, is it because that I have not taken the pills for the past 1 month?? Please help.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Usually stopping the contraceptive pills won't lead to weight gain.
There could be some other cause like change in lifestyle etc.
During premenstrual phase some amount of weight gain can be seen due to hormonal effect.
So you wait whether you will get periods soon.
You can follow measures like exercises, dietary modifications to decrease the gained weight.
Take care.
