Will Taking Femiplan Pills Cause Weight Gain?
Hi! I am 29years old with no children, no medical history. I started taking femiplan pills six months ago and i have gained more than five kgs and this is not normal for me as i have always had a constant weight. could this be a side effect of the pill?

Hello,
Femilon is a hormonal contraceptive pill and can cause a weight gain due to water retention in the body in the first few months. This weight usually decreases after stopping the pill.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
