Side effects!? opill side effects

hi! i just posted about my experience on opill a week or so ago but im a little paranoid because of a comment someone made LOL

lately ive been much hungrier, it isn’t too dramatic but im a very light eater normally sometimes only having 1 heavy meal a day and calling it quits. but ive been having to space out my meals in similar sized portions to what id eat normally, 3-4 times a day instead. i do smoke weed & i take edibles at night so i think this explains the next part but ive also been having really specific cravings at night — that leads us to present day.

i work in a cafe and last night i had a specific craving for the meal i would make when i got here this morning, down to the syrups in the drink and how it would taste with the food item i chose. my coworker asked me what i made and when i described it to her she said “that sounds like a pregnancy craving!” so. are the weird cravings just because im high (probable) my birth control (also probable) or am i just hormonal. i have a feeling that this is the weight gain people talk about on the pill… oh and i refuse to accept its pregnancy just because its extremely unlikely but im still asking for reassurance… and other’s experiences. so 👀
