hi healthcare magic user, weight gain is side effect of the birth control pills.
lethargy ,nausea, mood swings are also side effects of the birth control pills.
please check for TSH levels to rule out hypothyroidism which also presents with lethargy, weakness, weight gain, nerve compression features.
you need complete evaluation and clinical history to understand cause for above features.
