[quote=Anonymous]I would never give my child the pill without real medical need- there are rare but catastrophic, life-altering or even lethal side effects like blood clots and stroke possible. My friend’s college roommate went from professional athlete to permanently disabled after suffering a stroke her doctors said was triggered by the pill. There’s also emerging research that hormonal contraceptives increase the risk of depression in teens- a large Danish study if you want to look it up. The inconvenience and cramps of periods are pretty easily manageable for most girls and women with some simple strategies- I would absolutely try that first before giving my kid a medication that could kill her.[/quote]
