Answers:
It depends on the form of birth control!. I'll just talk about the pill!.

Combined oral contraceptives AKA 'The Pill' can increase the risk of cardiovascular problems such as deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, stroke and heart attack!. This risk is especially prevalent in smokers, older women, and women with pre-existing cardiovascular disease!. 'The Mini Pill', an oral contraceptive with one hormone instead of 2, does not carry the same risk of cardiovascular issues, but it's harder to keep up with because you have to take the pill at exactly the same time everyday or the effectiveness will be greatly reduced!.

However the benefits of the pill outweigh the risks of these problems in the majority of women!.

The pill may cause weight gain!. Some women experience nausea, moodiness, and menstrual changes!. A slight majority (about 60%) of women do not experience any side effects!.

I started taking Mircette almost 4 years ago for the first time and have been on it ever since!. I haven't experienced any side effects besides slight weight gain and an improvement in my skin!. However, there isn't one pill that's right for everyone!. I got lucky the first time!. Some women try several different types of pills until they find the one that's right for them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It depends on which one you use!. Some cause weight gain, some cause mood swings, some cause low libido, and all hormonal forms have the possibility of break through bleeding and for some vaginitis!. I couldn't use anything with hormones so I had to go with a copper IUD!. But even those have their con, which is spotting and heavier periods for the first three months!. I am giving mine until the end of the year to see how it goes, I have had it since July but things are improving so the outlook is hopeful!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

sometimes the hormones can really mess you up!.!.!.if you use an iud it could cause internal bleeding!.!.!.condoms can cause allergic reactions!.!.!.none of them are *** effective as they should be!.!.!.ur body consders all of them unnatural so it tries to fight itWww@Answer-Health@Com

there is a risk of becoming sterile but the risk is low especially when you take low dose birth control which has a lower hormone contentWww@Answer-Health@Com
