What Causes Weight Gain While On Rigevidon?
I have been on microgynon for the past few years after having the implant removed. The last time I received my prescription I got given rigivedon. Since then I have put on quite a lot of weight and I don t feel like I m eating any more than usual. I haven t been able to shift it and constantly feel bloated. The GP said the pills were exactly the same however I don t feel like it s a conicidence.

Hello,
Thank you for trusting HealthcareMagic for your health
The weight gain you are experiencing is not due to the rigevedon as you did fine on microgyon
Both the medications have same chemical composition in the same dose.
