Do calcium tablets cause weight gain?

My doctor prescribed these after I had a hairline fracture, and my weight stayed exactly the same. They don't cause weight gain at all. Just drink enough water so you don't get a heavy stomach.

I have been taking calcium supplements on and off for five years now. They do not cause fat gain, but the carbonate form can cause serious bloating if not taken with meals. Switch to calcium citrate if you feel heavy, as it is much easier on the digestive system.

There is no scientific correlation between calcium supplementation and weight gain. In fact, calcium plays a positive role in metabolic health. If you are experiencing weight changes, it is best to consult your doctor to evaluate other hormonal or dietary factors.

With PCOS, I am always paranoid about anything that might affect my weight. I have been taking calcium for a few months now and it hasn't caused any weight gain. Just be mindful of your overall lifestyle and consult your endocrinologist if you have doubts.

I was also advised to take these by my dentist, but I was too shy to ask if they cause weight gain because I am trying to slim down. Is there a specific time of day we should take them to avoid feeling bloated?
