It’s interesting that, right before coming to this website today, I saw a status from a friend on FB about birth control. I’m not sure what pill she is on, but it is doing the OPPOSITE of what this pill claims to do.
“I have been having crying spells and mood swings all the time over the last couple of weeks.. not mention to my anxiety has gotten a million times worse.”
Women have really have to know that they are the guinea pigs of the medical industry, especially in areas of reproduction. Birth control pills, fertility drugs, and abortion are just terrible for womens’ health.
In fact, I just read that Guiliana Rancic, who has gone through several rounds of IVF, now has breast cancer. She is only 36 years old! I know that the media will only deny a connection between the cancer and IVF, but the link is well documented. I have been reading about the dangers of birth control pills, abortion, fertility drugs, and IVF for years and I ask everyone to research these subjects on your own to discover the truth.
The drug companies have disclaimers written all over the packaging of birth control and warns women of its usage. And, yet, women still believe that it is the “right” thing to do.
The t.v. commercials even say, very explicitly, “taking the pill may cause blood clots, break through bleeding, heart attack or even death” at the end of them.
What woman would want to risk any of these? Oh yes, those who have been told that birth control is a necessary thing and have their doctors push it on them – that or a tubal ligation after their second child…or worse, still, abortion if that third child is conceived.
The drug companies will not be held liable – the warnings are all over their advertising and their packaging. Women (and men) just refuse to read them.
Believe me, the doctors downplay those risks and cancer is never mentioned. Studies have shown increased cancer risk with birth control pills, abortion, IVF, and fertility drugs, but the medical establishment does a good job of hiding it.
My mom was on the pill and got breast cancer in her early 40’s.
I conceived my son while on Yaz. Thank God it “failed” and I have my wonderful son. Sometimes I do wonder what being on that poison has done to my health though. The pill is so bad for women and its time we said NO!
