No exact odds.: Both obesity and birth control pill put you at risk of blood clots. Is the risk even higher when you have both than can be explained by adding the odds separately, is hard to say. Do you smoke, have a family history of blood clots or strokes or sudden death in people under the age of 50? No matter, what, the risks of blood clots, are likely lower than the risks of pregnancy, it is said.
