I'm about to go on the pill for the first time. Will this increase my breast size? And will I gain weight??

I am going to the doctors in a week and going on the pill for the first time. I am worried about gaining weight though. Right now I'm trying to lose some, and I'm worried I'll become chubbier = ( Also, I've heard that the pill can increase breast size, is this true? thanks in advance.

1. depending on the type of birth control you go on and every body is different so everyone will have different symtoms... like the one im not nothing happened i didnt gain weight nor did my breast grow
2. Some women gain weight on the pill, others don't. But most weight gain isn't very much (5-10 lbs). The breasts may seem a bit fuller, but generally, not really much difference.
3. there is a chance you will gain weight,but more of a chance when you are on the pill
4. The myth about women gaining weight while on the pill is just that, a myth; HOWEVER, if you are going on the depovera shot (depo shot) then there is an 85% chance of weight gain. The pill does not cause weight gain or enlarged breasts. Breast increase in size to to weight gain or milk production, although one side effect of the pill is breast tenderness. As your body adjusts to hormonal changes created by The Pill, some minor side effects may include: Irregular bleeding or spotting Nausea Breast tenderness Water retention Spotty darkening of the skin Mood changes If you do get any side effects, they will usually disappear after 2-3 cycles. One MAJOR perk is that it can dramatically lighten and/or shorten your period. Yay for that!!
5. It depends on your body. I lost weight when I first went on the pill, about ten pounds, but you may be different.
