Actually it is true. However, it effects different women in different ways (i.e. some people may gain the weight gradually over a few years; some may not gain the weight at all; and some may gain a lot in the first few months, and then it will level off). I don't know all of the chemical reaction details, but basically, it makes you more prone to retaining water I believe.
Same goes for Depo Provera, on average women gain about 10 pounds per year that they are getting the shot, provided they are not exercising, or doing something else to prevent the weight gain,
Why women use the pill is beyond me anyway...talk about the pain in the ass taking a pill every day at the same time. Plus it's expensive. Depo provera is a hundred times easier and it's cheaper too
God, what a weird topic on an adult webmaster board!
