      Anything over 5 lbs weight gain while on hormonal birth control is NOT from the pill. I have been on 4 different pills and never gained weight. I think the reason why some women gain weight from it is because yes, some can cause some crazy cravings. I have bad cravings with Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo, but was totally fine with Yaz. Everyone's body acts differently. The only way to find out how it will work with you is to try it.
