A member asked:
I have a stent in my celiac artery which has a higher rate of stenosis. if i start birth control pill will that increase the rate of it cladding even if im on a blood thinner?

If you really need birth control pill, you can take it with minimal risk especially you are taking blood thinner. Contraceptive pill increases the risk of venous clot, not much of arterial thrombosis. If you are still worried, you can try a different type of contraception.
