Has anyone put on weight in downcycle? I started microgynon 2 months ago and gonapeptyl injection yesterday and have put on 5lbs in the last 2 months! Anyone else experienced this and will it get worse?

Hi love, on my first round I could eat and I mean eat 🙃so I was very mindful of what I was putting in my mouth, eating lots of extra fruit and veg and of course a few ice creams along the way. 5 lbs in 2 months isn’t much and I would try not to stress about it, it will fall off as quick as it went on. If you’re worried about it maybe try getting a few more steps in if you feel up to it? 😘
