I'm worried about my weight

The weight gain that some women get on the pill is most often caused by fluid retention. This should not pose a health risk, provided it's not extreme. But at the same time, the extra weight caused by excess fluid in your body, can make you feel unattractive and unhappy.

The pill which contains Drospirenone, minimises fluid retention with the result that your body weight could remain stable or may even drop slightly.3
