I've been on birth control of many sorts for almost a year (medical reasons) and I've noticed lately that my breasts are larger. I don't fit in my bras the way I used to and they're just overall bigger. I don't know whether to blame normal growing for it or the hormones. I just know I've hardly grown at all (overall) in well over a year so normal growth is kind of unlikely. I'm glad you brought this up because I'd never thought of it as being the hormones.

Yes. I had the the same thing happened to me when I started taking BP pills. But after a while I noticed I had also gained weight and my pants fit quite snugly...

I hear it's pretty normal if your boobs grow on BC.
I was on Yaz for two weeks and mine were swelling up but damn they hurt!! I got off Yaz because I don't trust it. I'm switching soon, and hopefully the next brand can my girls grow.Yeah that's a common side effect of the pill, your breasts can swell a little more.
Yes, estrogen based birth control does that. You're probably done after one size, though.
It's the hormones, whether a lot or little it can cause your boobs to grow, you to gain wait, loose weight, improved mood, etc. My boobs grew too when I was on birth control, I also gained weight., and found myself to be less moody.
It's not uncommon. It may or may not last.
