I was wondering if anyone had heard of actually LOSING weight once put on birth control? I was prescribed BCPs when I showed signs of PCOS and ever since I have been on them I have basically steadily lost pounds! In the last year around 15-20 total. I haven't changed other factors that much and wondered if anyone else had experienced this???

I lost about 25lbs when I was on Yasmin. My doctor advised me that this was a side affect that most of his patients on Yasmin noticed. Plus, if you are overweight as a result of PCOS, proper treatment whether it be BCP or Metformin or something else will start to bring your weight under control.

I did lose weight when I went on Yasmin. In fact every time I took Yasmin for longer than 2 months I started to lose weight.
