Does your family or yourself have a history of blood clots? I mean the risk is small, but if you are worried about it a lot you could always go with a copper iud instead which doesn't increase your risk.

Talk to your GP. A dimer test can quickly spot any blood clots and they're easily treated. Your at far greater risk of blood clots from a bacon sandwich than the pill.

It can make you permanently infertile too. Changes brain chemistry and all other kinds of nasty stuff.

I’ve been on it. No issues.

Do a different form of bc

Talk to your Doctor. Maybe an IUD instead?
