Re: Hungry (Bc)
Estrogen, in large doses, is known to increase appetite. However most modern forms of hormonal birth control don't contain enough hormone to have this effect. What method are you currently using? If you have concerns, or if you have bothersome side effects that last longer than three months from the time you started using your method, you should definitely check in with your doctor to see if something else might suit you better.
