I gained quite a lot of weight on Cerelle, but that could have also been affected by my love of beer at the time. I was always a size 8 and on Cerelle I went up to a nice size 14 (sexy size but not built for my frame). I have stopped taking it a while ago, and gave my body a break from hormones. During this time I focused on what I eat and walked wherever could. In no time I went back to my size 8. A lot of this weight gain is usually water weight which goes down as soon as you stop the pill.

I was offered the Mirena coil as that could be a good alternative? x
