Re: Birth control and A+ blood type From: Thomas (anonymous@obgyn.net) Wed, 4 Nov 1998 01:35:06 -0600 (CST) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Thomas: "Re: irregular bleeding" Previous message: Thomas: "Re: Need for Surgery" In reply to: Jennifer: "Birth control and A+ blood type" Next in thread: Marcia: "Re: Birth control and A+ blood type" Reply: Marcia: "Re: Birth control and A+ blood type" The significance of an A+ blood group is related to a woman's risk of developing clots in her legs on the pill. Although your sister's risk is about 1.5 times higher than if she wasn't on the pill it is still 6 times lower than if she got pregnant. Headaches on the pill can be potentially serious. Focal migraine is a contraindication to the pill. Your sister needs to she her doctor and discuss this with him/her. -- Thomas Ind MB BS MD MRCOG St George Hospital Kogarah Sydney Australia Next message: Thomas: "Re: irregular bleeding" Previous message: Thomas: "Re: Need for Surgery" In reply to: Jennifer: "Birth control and A+ blood type" Next in thread: Marcia: "Re: Birth control and A+ blood type" Reply: Marcia: "Re: Birth control and A+ blood type"
