birth control and weight

I’ve been using the birth control patch for about 3 weeks now and i’m trying to lose weight, but it hasn’t really been working. Is the patch making this happen?

Answer #1

Hormonal birth control, whether it be the patch, the pill, the ring, the shot or any other type acts different with different women. Some lose weight, some gain weight. But 3 weeks isn’t much time to lose weight in. I would wait longer. Make sure you are really on a healthy food diet and exercising till muscle failure( which will strengthen muscles, in turn helping you burn more calories.)
