A member asked:
What if i develop some spider veins while on pills, do i need to stop taking pills or should i change the brand of my pills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
My reading suggests there's no evidence oral contraceptives cause varicose or spider veins. A gynecologist or vascular surgeon may have some experience with this, however.
