Side effects of Junel

I was wondering how likely it is that I will gain weight on this medication. I need it for my severe cramps, but I don’t want side affects. I was on ortho tryclen lo.. how doe it compare to that medication and what can I look for as far as possible weight gain? Thanks for any info on Junel.

As a user of Junel for 2 months now, I have definately experienced weight gain. It all seems to be concentrated around my middle and my breasts have filled out as though I’m lactating again! I am 5’6" and usually average 117-121lbs, but am now up to 127 and not at all happy about the change. I have upped my exercise routine and even gone as far as doing the "fasting" diet, but without results. If weight gain is an issue, I would ask your doctor about an alternative. I to, was an Ortho TriCyclen Lo user.
Good Luck in your search for the "perfect pill".
