Taking a Break From The Pill - Fact or Fiction?

By , About.com GuideNovember 2, 2011

Follow me on:

Do you have a question about contraception that you cannot seem to get an honest answer to? Is there something that you are confused by, and you want some clarification? Have you heard a myth ...or maybe it's not...you're not sure? Feel free to post your question my Contraception Forum - We have many supportive "regulars" who have excellent experience and might give you advice. Sometimes, I may even pick out one of your questions and feature it in future blog.

For example, a recent forum member explained that she has been taking birth control for 15 years and wanted to know:

Is it bad to be on the pill for an extended period of time? Are there any side effects or risks? Is it beneficial to take a break?

What do you think?
