I'm a 18 years old failry healthy female
and am worried about the possible risks to
my heart with being on the birth control
pill. I have been on it for about 2 years
now. My aunt died when she was 23, and
she was on the pill. This was in the 70's
though, and the pill was a lot riskier.
My dad also has extremely low blood
pressure. My question is am I at any
great risk of having a heart attack or
stroke due to my birthcontrol pill because
it runs in my family? If I have any chest
pains now could they be related?

Hmm, my g/f is on the pill, she had chest
pains but they where from anxiety. If
your pills come with a book, read it, if
your experiencing chest pains on it,
because in the book it tells you what
might be happaning.
