Birth control water weight

[harleysummers]

[FONT=&quot]So when I tell people my birth control made me gain weight, they always ask me "Did it make you gain fat or water weight?" and honestly... I don't know. How can you tell if increased weight and size is from fat gain or retaining water? Do they feel/look different? How can I tell?[/FONT]

honestly i hate birth control not for religious reasons lol, but because it makes females go crazy and fucks with you mentally and hormonally. plus i know so many chicks who still got pregnant on it.

It is generally not easy to tell from just looks, but some signs that it is water retention is puffiness or roundness in the face that came on very quickly.

They are very different. Usually water retention is also limited to a certain amount. Women usually retain some water on their period. This would be similar at most. Usually the birth control pill isnt going to account for much of that anyways.

If you're concerned about this find a different way to have birth control. Those pills have many side effects.
