how to lose weight while on Bc?

Hey love, I highly suggest getting off the pill. Hormonal acne is a sign of a hormonal imbalance and the pill is just a band aid solution, it doesn’t actually fix the underlying issue. You can get off the pill and get your hormones tested to see what the issue is. You likely have a hormonal imbalance that once balanced will probably clear your acne and cut your cravings that will help you lose weight. Obviously this should be done in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. It’s common for the pill to make people gain weight because of water retention and more cravings. But ultimately you are in control. Losing weight is simple, you need to be in a slight calorie deficit consistently there is no magic solution. But step one would be to get off the pill. It causes more harm than good especially at your age!!! Follow Dr Jolene brighten on Instagram she talks about female hormones :)
