Shira Miller, M.D.(Menopause and Anti-Aging Physician)answered(6/12/2012)An IUD is less likely to cause weight gain, if you get the kind without hormones in it.
Thank you Dr. Miller. Yes, I have a non-hormonal IUD (Paraguard) and experienced no weight gain with it. I did gain a few pounds when I had been on birth control pills. Just my experience!
