I have been taking birth control pill since I am 14 years old, currently I am 18 years old. Back then I use to weight 95-100 pounds but as the years started to pass my weight has change. I currently weight 120 pounds. I never been fat or have any history. This question is just on my mind because I really am starting to hate how my stomach area looks for my age. If anyone know if it does or doesn't it will be appreciated.

Certain types and doseages can and in fact, do that.

Don't overlook the fact you are getting older as well and your bodies metabolism is slowing down and you might not be as physically active as you used to be. You have to adjust your diet and eating habits as you get older.

Everyone's metabolism slows down in adulthood... up through your teen years its in overdrive.

Literally if you don't change anything your weight will start to slowly creep upward.

The age that happens varies between people... but at 18 its not unusual to start. But it could be a combination of factors with that as well as the Birth Control pills.

You may want to discuss that with your gynocologist your next visit. They might see fit to adjust your doseages if they think its enough of an issue.
