Lybrel weight gain!! Need opinoins?

HI! I have been on Lybrel for about 1 year and have gained about 20lbs. I excercise daily and at one point watched every calorie, nothing changed. My normal weight is around 140 and Im 160 now and EXTREMELY FUSTRATED. I am taking myself off the pill for a two month trial to see how I manage with out it. I have severe pmdd so I am on the pill to steady my hormone levels. Im really scared that I am going to get really sick again like I was before I started using Lybrel. Yes, I had about 9 months of bleeding but I wasnt sick so that made it worth while. Now Im going off it to try to get back to my normal weight. I was wondering if other Lybrel users have gone though this ..had this experience ?? what are your thoughts..should i be doing this? Its not to late to stay on it!

1. Lybrel can cause weight gain because of the hormones in the medication. Most of the weight that occurs because of the hormones is mostly water weight. I would not recommend going off the Lybrel til talking to your doctor as well to see what they say.
