Birth Control & Bloating: Understanding the Connection


Question
hi ive been on birth control for 3 months now i had stopped for a month and relized my stomach was a little flatter. It seems that every time i take the pill i get bloated is this normal

Answer
Artificial hormones have many different effects on your body.  Bloating can certainly be one of them.  If you have not read the package insert that comes with the pills from the pharmacist, you should do that.  There are many side effects and they are not good.
