Birth control and weight gain?


my doctor told me that they have made studies and found out that birth control doesnt always cause weight gain. is it true??

and

how long after starting to take the pills should you wait to have unprotected sex?

i know i should always use protection but i am planning on moving in with my boyfriend..

It doesn't always cause weight gain. I used the patch and actually lost weight. To prevent pregnancy, you should use a condom for two weeks after starting birth control.

you should never have unprotected sex..... you should always use a condom

I gained 30 pounds in the 2 years that I was on the pill and I wasn't eating any more, or exercising any less. I blame it on the pill. They can't prove that it causes you to gain weight or not. But, I have another friend who also gained weight while she was on the pill.
