Recently I stopped taking Yasmin. Since then (1.5 month ago) I put on 4 Ib even though I eat the same as before and I workout at my gym 4-5 times a week. Did any of you experienced anything like this after putting away the pill? I'm going next week to endocrinologist, I'd like to start metformin, maybe this will stop weight gain?

Apparently that's common in women with PCOS and IR. I don't remember where I read that. When I stopped BCPs (before I was diagnosed) I gained close to 30lbs. I'm also pretty insulin resistant. Definitely talk to your endo! Good luck!

Oh my, I hope that doesn't happen to me. I stopped taking yaz about two months ago because it, like all others in the past, started giving me migraines. I do take met and haven't noticed a drastic change in my weight (up a few lbs though my eating has been not so good...terrible cravings around AF) On a happy note, I have had two regular cycles since stopping the pill. Haven't had that in close to 10 years!

When I stopped getting the Depo shot I stopped having he weight come off .. its been a year and I've not been able to get the weight to budge down - but granted its not been put on either.

Wish I could go back on the depo - but its not necessary anymore, no form of BC is
