Possibly: Oral contraceptive pills can be used in 37 year old women if they do not smoke and do not have any history of clotting disorders. Here is a site that can give you information on side effects http://www.uptodate.com/contents/hormonal-methods-of-birth-control-beyond-the-basics?source=see_link
