Does taking birth control have any side effects? i have never taken any bc and never been pregnant, my periods have always been on time.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Birth Control: There can be many side effects from birth control as with ANY medicine. Look up the side effects from Tylenol (acetaminophen) sometime. Bests to talk with your healthcare provider regarding the pros/cons of birth control. Also many different types of birth control pills, so again discussion with your healthcare provider to decide if they are appropriate for you, if so which one. Hope this helps. Best of luck
