❓ Fact or Myth?
“Birth control causes weight gain.”
🚫 Myth!
One of the most common misconceptions about birth control is that it automatically leads to weight gain. While some people may notice changes in their weight while on certain contraceptives, research shows that this is not a common side effect.
✅ What’s more likely?
Lifestyle factors, diet, stress, and even genetics tend to play a much bigger role in weight fluctuations than birth control itself.
