Q: Gaining Weight On Ortho Evra

asked by: littlemisstery on January 11th, 2007

I've noticed about a ten pound weight gain in the past year while on ortho evra.. I'm not really complaining about it, seeing that I was 90 pounds from the age of 14 to 19 (and took only normal birth control pills at the time that usually did nothing but make me nauseated everyday). Has anyone else noticed a bit of weight gain from ortho evra or any other form of birth control?
