The Deadly Side Effects of the Birth Control Pill

The pill came out with indecent haste and doctors ignored the hazards of synthetic steroids and estrogenic overload which even at that time were well known, and by doing so they contravened the Hyppocratic Oath. The pill, even at its best, was not foolproof and a number of unwanted pregnancies resulted. To deal with that problem the medical profession with the support of the UN, WHO etc, dehumanised the unborn child so that it could be killed without legal implications and granted doctors the unprecedented right to be killers of the unborn. Ever since then, the pill has been the destoyer of famiies and a contributing factor to chronic degenerative diseases.

The pill estrogen, when voided via the urine, finds it's way eventually into the drinking water and together with psuedo and xeno estrogens of agricultural and industrial origins contribute to general feminisation of the population. The subsequent suppression of testosterone in both sexes reduces female and male libido. Sperm counts are currently down to 50% of what they should be. There are increasing numbers of men and women with sexual dysfunction.

We have to realise that we have been taken for a ride by the demographic planners and the pharmaceutical cartels who want to depopulate the world and make a killing while they are at it.

The pill was directed at the Third World but they thumbed their noses at it as well as all other forms of contraception. Presently, the Western European population is self destructing through contraception, The birthing facilities are overflowing with muslim babies and it wont be long before the majority of their populations will be muslim. They don't have to conquer by the sword...all they need to do is make lots of babies. They will conquer Europe without spilling a drop of blood. How convenient!!

I am quite sure the bc pill is bad. Actually, comments in the late 70's convinced me I should stop. I used the natural method and condoms during fertile times. I now have a third son who just tunred 27 last week. :-) Be prepared to get pregnant if you stop using the pill.

I use the LadyComp.

It's based on the temperature method, but it's much more "evolved"--essentially, it's a little computer with extensive data on women's menstrual cycles (it contains data on 300,000 cycles). You take your temperature every day for about 30 seconds, and then it tells you if it's a green or red day (red=fertile, so no unprotected sex). For the first cycle it will mostly give "yellow" days, as it learns what your cycle is like. With a 28 day cycle, like mine, it gives about 15-18 green days. It was developed and tested in Germany, and you can google it for more info. The downside is its cost (about $500), but you can pay it in monthly instalments and it's supposed to last for 10 years. I've had it for almost a year and so far, so good. I choose abstinence form intercourse on the red days and condoms on the green (infertile) days, because there is no way I would risk anything, but other couple choose to use some form of protection on the red days and no protection on the green days.

Unfortunately this is not enough science to alarm me.

"Deadly" is a poor interpretation of the results available worldwide.

"Sugar" is deadly for some people.

All patients should be aware of the risk/benefit of the drug howvever.

I feel it is important to add that PCOS is very common as is insulin resistance in our society today. It is due to a lot of the foods, chemicals and processes that it endures, before it goes into our bodies. When a woman with PCOS is given a bc pill it stops ovulation so that the cysts on her ovaries will not continue to form. If she can't ovulate, the ovule can not errupt during ovulation, and therefore can not cause a cyst. So if your Dr. has diagnosed you with PCOS and thrown the pill at you for a solution, please educate yourself on the condition some more... On the same note, if you are having problems getting pregnant, have sudden weight gain, and mood/ hormone problems... please ask about this condition. It saved my sanity to find it as the culprit and treat myself. I hope I have helped someone... thanks!

It has been very eye opening to read what has been posted on here. I was concerned with my birth control pill and how it made me feel and it's link to heart disease. When I questioned my Dr. about it she told me that if I don't take it, I would most likely develop uterine cancer because I was not having my cycle and shedding the buildup every month and it would turn cancerous. Therefore, it was better to take the pill with the "questionable" risks than risk cancer later. I was tiny and skinny from high school through college and still did not have cycles, had horrible cystic acne and terrible periods.. I didn't/ don't see where I have a choice in this matter but to take the pill??? Then, five years ago after gaining much weight and not being able to concieve a baby in four years, I ended up at a Reproductive Endocrinologists Office and was there diagnosed with PCOS (Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome). I was ordered to join a diet support group and started taking Metformin. Within five months I was pregnant and had a very healthy beautiful baby. I did, however, rip into research and have read everything that I can on PCOS, it's link to Insulin Resistance, and Pre-Diabetes, as well as every diet book on the market. That is how I stumbled across Dr. Mercola and his Commentaries. I now know that with exercise and by eating the right foods, I can control this and get off the pills and have my regularity. It's not about "dieting" but eating the proper balanced diet of foods. I am already having great results. PCOS is a side effect or symptom of insulin resistance and the "syndrome x" that so many people are victim to these days... and YES Men/ Boys can have a form of PCOS. I think birth control pills are avoidable for this condition. As far as using for a birth control method, that is your personal choice. I am Pro-Life and believe all children are wanted, by someone. Therefore, yes I advocate for that matter. That said, I am glad to share my findings ;) if it helps anyone ;)

Rhythm methods and other "natural methods" DON'T WORK.

Please don't suggest them!

Listen, bub, I'm on your side most of the time, but if you don't like the side effects of the pill, try the side effects of an unwanted pregnancy and childbirth...and don't forget the effects on the unwanted child who is born. I am totally PRO CHOICE and that means 'every child a wanted child'. I wouldn't sacrifice the mother's well-being for the child's. But I think most women will prefer a pill that always works to a condom, an IUD, or the diaphragm.

I feel however that FOR YOU TO ADVOCATE "NATURAL" METHODS IS CRIMINAL.

I'm gravely disappointed in you, Dr. M. Come up with a viable alternative, PLEASE. All women will be grateful!

I took BCP for several years and then developed Cholasma (melasma). After I self-diagnosed my condition (!) I stopped taking the pill and within 12 months, my cholasma disappeared. BUT, to my amazement, my mood lightened only 3 days after not taking the pill. My husband asked me if I was feeling better so I know it wasn't my imagination. I had no idea that I was in a 'low-grade' depression for years and that depression was a side-effect of the pill. I will never take the pill again and if anyone ever asks me, I'll tell them not to do it!

I can say that BC pills are horrible. I took them for some years, went off and then with painful, heavy periods my old doctor put me back on them. I never questioned doctors back then, after all they are all correct and what do I, a layman with no medical degree question him as I was reminded of that fact on several different occasions, so I just shut up. Within 6 months I was admitted into the hospital with a DVT in my left calf. The doctor was extremely concerned because he had stated that the clot was so large, he basically said I was on my death bed. 5 days on heparin and coumadin with complete bed rest in the hospital, I left VERY lucky to literally walk out of there. I now ALWAYS question, and if in doubt, I get a second opinion. I also do not shut up anymore!

I've been taking birth control pills for 11 years nonstop to help balance out a hormone problem. In my experience they helped me immensely such as clearing up extremely painful (physical and emotionally) cystic acne, helped me gained weight by increasing my appetite so I was no longer emaciated, gave me energy while reduced my anxiety, I started developing a female form as soon as I took it, and also I was able to mentally perform better. People started asking me what happened? I went from looking sick to looking healthy. I was a pile of bones before. Though I do not think bc pills are for everyone, it does help for some people. I tried to find natural therapies to replace these pills but I can't find anything that can help my conditions. By the way, the studies were done on women who took older generation pills which contain about 50mcg of estrogen. I'm taking 20mcg.

DonnyBlakes article is well worth rereading and putting into practice. Respect for God*s plan for sex will solve many of our family and social ills.

You don't mention any alternatives for controlling the menstrual cycle in young women, although you allude to it as a reason for doctors recommending it for that purpose. Do you know of any alternatives and if so, what are they?

Hate to break it to you Maggie Mae but if you don't feel comfortable with the natural methods of birth control, you're s.o.l.

My sister was/is (don't know) on the pill. She says it's a life saver because she had menopausal-like symptoms but she hates the side effects.

Umm...Organic? Stop Fake n' Bake? Hmmm...stop wearing icky-chemical filled make-up? Raw???? M'eh. Whatever.

I have never been on the pill but I was thinking about it because I use to have really bad periods. But I have learned that if I excersise, the flow goes down and if I eat right, the pain goes down:) YAY!

The pll is steroides? WHAT!? ...then again, I'm not that surprised. I don't think I'd ever take the pill anyway. I think I'll go for the temp and mucus method.

I'd like to know what alternative there is to the Pill when you've got PCOS (poly-cystic ovarian syndrome). It's a very common ailment and it's why I've been on the Pill for 25+ years. Without it I don't menstruate at all, and get hairy like a man. Every time I've tried to go off of it my symptoms get worse. Anyone else out there with PCOS?
