Help Me With Birth Control Situation.
Posted: 04-06-04 10:07am

Hey everyone, my name is kristin and I am 17 years old. I went to the planned parenthood clinic, and I had all that pap smear and told them I have had high cholestorol when I was younger, and I am a little bit over weight. She put me on trilevlen 28, and I am scared to take them because what if I get a blood vclot or something like that. Aren't I suppost to go on something else? I went to be other doctor and she gave me a sample of ortho-tricycline lo, and is that going to be any better. Someone please help me, if you can i_da_b aby@hotmail.Com

All birth control pills can cause blood clots. I am sure the doctor will put you on whichever pill she/he feels is best for you.

Yeah, all birth control pills can have that side effect. The lower the estrogen in the pill, the less of a chance though. Having high cholesterol doesn't increase your chance of a blood clot and neither does being somewhat overweight. I think they are more concerned if you have blood disorders, have a history of migraines or other headaches, and maybe high blood pressure. I have high cholesterol and they never said anything to me about it, but they did say something when I told them I had bad migraines. They put me on lower estrogen because of it (unfortunately those pills didn't work)..
