Yeah im on the pill of ortho-tri lo, and yeah within the past 6 months my boobs are huge, but I think its because of weight gain, and I dont think it really has to do with the pill too much, because I was starting to gain some weight before I started bc. :)

I honestly don't know, but just within the past year, ive been gaining a little at a time, but now im on a diet and trying to get the extra weight off. I didnt get really big by any means but just don't quite fit into my jeans anymore haha.

I'm on ortho tri cyclen lo and i'm starting to think I should change my pill,when I first went on the pill I was on lev lite,then tri levlin and I loved those.. Then my doctor switched me to ortho tri cyclen lo and now i'm breaking out and very,very moody.. Especially around my period,i never had pms until I was on ortho. No weight gain tho...
