Oh my gosh!!! It DOES get worse! I weighed about 110 forever and gained 30 pounds on this pill!! I had taken other birth control for about 15 years and hadn't had that weight gain. I was on this pill about 2 1/2 years but recently (2 months ago) got off of it. I did not change my lifestyle either...ran 2 1/2 or more miles a day...even up to 4 miles a day...and the weight WOULD NOT come off. I've now lost 5 of the 30 pounds and I have 25 pounds left to go!! It's a nightmare!!! And my boobs STILL hurt while this crap is getting out of my system. They hurt SO bad sometimes I can barely stand it. Good luck!
