A member asked:
What should i do if i'm on birth control and have raynaud's disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to MD: This is a difficult question to answer. If your symptoms are worse while on birth control, talk to your md to consider alternative contraception methods. There is a possible relationship between Estrogens and raynaud's but data remains unclear.
