I've been on Yasmin for 3 years, and just stopped it last month; however i've noticed a weight gain especially on the waist... can it be due to that? how can i get rid of it? do i go back to the pill?

It is unlikely that it is due to stopping the Yasmin , on the contrary patients get some extra kilos when on pills..
Some of the Side effect of Yasmin is change in appetite, so may be when you stopped it , you had increased in appetite that led to the increase in your weight..
