can the pill make you put on weight?

ive been on the pill for a little over a year now and it seems since ive been on it ive put on weight. im actually not a big person, in fact, im smaller than all my friends, except my stomach is always bloated.
it looks silly coz my arms, legs face everything is normal except my stomach. its out of proportion from the rest of my body. i don’t think its fat though, its not fubby or anything, it actually looks like im in the early stages of pregnancy, which im not. im really self conscious of it and i always suck my stomach in, ive got into the habit of it.
back to my question, could this be from my pill, nd do i think i should go off it for a while to see if things change?
the thing is, i went on the pill coz i have problems with my period nd i get really sick from it so my doctor prescribed it.

    Don’t do anything weird to your diet, go to your doctor and tell her about your problem and you can try a different pill and see if it affects you the same way.
