I saw a major fat reduction after I got off depo. I gained 15# on depo, most of it fat. I started out underweight (before I had kids) so it wasn't a big deal, but I definitely prefer being off those extra hormones. However, B.C. pills didn't seem to affect my weight, but I was only on them when I was quite young.

Make sure you use SOMETHING if you don't want to get pregnant! I was diagnosised with PCOS in 1998 after 13 years of trying to get pregnant, fertility drugs included. In 1999, I started Atkins and now I happily have 3 children! I didn't know the correlation then but the diet can enhance fertility!! [COLOR=Black]
