muscle growth and birth control

[superqt4u2nv]

I havent seen her weigh and measure food....
Id have to have her jump on and type that our ..I dont watch what she eats. Ill have her have a look and fill this in.

Light weight and high reps are what is the mags. I do not know womens traing. so I dont want to comment either way to which is better. That why I need your input.

Women can lift the same style as men with lower reps heavier weights. If there worried about getting "manly" tell them to get over it not going to happen. It takes a lot for the average women to put on muscle plus adding muscle is actually a good thing cause you burn more calories and lose more fat.

bent my GF started the yaz 2 years ago and I feel it has wrecked her ability to loose weight. I keep telling her to switch but she just doesn't think its the pill. I sure as heck do though. Is she open to asking her dr for a diff one?

I dont see why not. This type also seems to give her headaches all the time(like every other day) I feel bad for her.

My question is this. What is the ingrediant that is responsible for the problem. And dont all birth controlsd have very similar ingrediants?

Most/All oral contraceptive (Pills) have combination hormones in them.... both estrogen and progesterone. There is something called a mini pill which has only progesterone and is considered slightly less effective. And then there are other options... ring (etonogestrel/ethinyl estradiol), patch (estrogen/progestin), injection, implant and IUD (Hormone, Mirena-Progestin... & non hormone I believe, Copper) (did I get them all?)... although IUD is not always an option. Many doctors will refuse to insert if they don't meet certain "criteria". If your girls want to maintain the pill, consider the mini pill or...

I am quoting this part from a website because I don't want to type them out...

Some birth control pills are less likely to cause weight gain. They include Brevicon, >Necon 0.5/35, >Tri-Norinyl, Triphasil, >Ortho Cyclen, >Ortho Tri-Cyclen, and the progestin-only minipills (Micronor, >Nor-QD, and >Ovrette).

I have been researching the different BCP sides, etc and came across two VERY interesting articles...
thought they may be helpful to you guys here...
I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure out what method is best. I have decided to try the progesterone mini pill but now I have read these articles and kind of back to square one.

they are 2 newer articles about studies that show being on the pill decreases lean muscle gains and hinders strength too.
