ortho lo + leg pains Posted: 03-10-06 16:59pm


I just started taking ortho lo. I am on the first week of my second pack. I have been having slight leg pains, that I attributed to a change in my exercise routine. However, today I noticed a purple spot on my tongue. I researched this, and came to the conclusion that it formed becasue of poor blood circulation. I guess my question is, can this be from the birth control pills? Can poor blood circulation contribute to blood clots? I am very worried, and I do have a family history of clots. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks, kelli

Actually yes...Birth control pills can slightly make your chance of clots higher...I've read it from the flyer that comes with the birth control pills since I am taking ortho lo too..Maybe you can consider taking other birth control other than pills...Try iud
