Hello,
Let me tell you that like any other drug,birth control pills also have side effects. Apart from other side effects such as nausea, vomiting etc., weight gain due to fluid retention and spotting between the periods are common and you should always keep this in mind.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
