Abstract
Weight gain is a common side effect during oral contraceptive use. The secretion of the satiety hormone cholecystokinin was recorded for 24 hours in women before and during treatment with oral contraceptives. During treatment serum profiles of cholecystokinin were clearly suppressed, which might be related to increased appetite and weight gain.
