birth control doesn’t directly make you gain weight it only increases your appetite.

The only method of birth control linked to weight gain is the depo-provera injection

Your food doesn't affect the effectiveness of birth control

The pill can have certain side effects, some people feel them, some don't, some feel them a lot, some just a little. One of those side effects is the increase in appetite, it means you can feel hungry or have cravings (but you can control them)

It can just increase or decrease your appetite, therefore make you feel more or less hungry. If you give in to increased appetite and eat lots, you may gain weight. But the pill is not directly linked to weight gain.

I would recommend eating healthier and exercising more if you have an increased appetite since being on the pill. It can be easier to say/think just eat less, but if you’re hungrier you’re going to want to eat. So I’d try working on eating more salads and low calorie foods so you aren’t eating a ton of extra calories. Or exercising more to help burn some of the extra food you may be eating.
