Does Taking Trigestrel Daily Lead To Excessive Weight Gain?
Good day I want to know will Trigestrel increase your body weight a lot because I see woman daily that gain a lot of weight and I just want to make sure I also want to know how effective is this pill is it 100% save? Lastly acne problems does it help with acne like other birth control pills or not?
Trigestrel (Ethinylestradiol & Levonorgestrel), a combination oral contraceptive can cause weight gain. Trigestrel like several other oral contraceptives containing both estrogen and progestin can help reduce acne & are approved by the FDA for the treatment of acne vulgaris. The OC pills decrease the circulation of androgens, which decreases the production of sebum.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
