New Birth Control Pills More Likely to Cause Blood Clots
A recent study found that newer third generation birth control pills double your risk of contracting a potentially fatal blood clot compared to older birth control pills. The group that conducted the study called Public Citizens, stated their facts today to the FDA in hopes that newer birth control pills that contain synthetic progestin desogestrel will be removed from the market immediately.
Dr. Sidney Wolfe, director of Public Citizen's Health Research Group, told HealthDay News, ?"While the use of any type of combined oral contraceptive holds an increased risk of venous thrombosis (blood clots), third-generation birth-control pills double that risk without preventing pregnancy any more effectively than older pills do. Worse, the FDA has known since 1995 that these oral contraceptives were more dangerous but has allowed them to stay on the market for 12 years.?
Although the newer birth control that poses the risk does have a more severe warning label, few actually read and take the warnings seriously. Blood clots typically form in the legs, and then travel elsewhere throughout your body, causing a blockage of blood flow that could cause serious harm or death.
According to HealthDay, the Public Citizens petition stated ?The FDA must ensure the well-being and safety of women in the U.S. and ban third-generation oral contraceptives containing desogestrel," the Public Citizen petition stated. Women should discuss with their doctors alternative methods of birth control, such as the second-generation oral contraceptives, and how to safely switch contraceptive methods."
The newer pills are more popular because users experience fewer side affects. Along with their petition to the FDA, the Public Citizens also have a informative video on youtube which talks about the many things you need to know about birth control.

Effective Birth Control: "It's Better To Have It And Not Need It Then Need It And Not Have It"
A subject very near and dear to my heart is the subject of birth control in all its forms. Condoms are the oldest form of effective birth control (second only to abstinence of course), but of course there are many others, most of them for women. This seems to be a source of tension between the sexes as I have met many women who are displeased with the fact that most birth control methods place the responsibility on them. To this I say: what's your point? I'll admit it's unfair, but there's not much else we have to work with at the present time. We've been hearing talk of a male birth control pill for many years and it still isn't here so we have to do the best with what we have. And hey, if and when that male pill comes out I'll be first in ...
The Relationship Between Birth Control Facts and Social Values
Today, researchers are starting to realize that there are some very serious consequences to ignoring the situations that teenagers find themselves in. Among other things, the switch to a focus on abstinence as the main expression of birth control facts has caused a significant increase in teenage births. Unfortunately, the toll on the health of children born to under age women, as well as the toll on the mother's long term health is likely to be very high. It seems that when people make decisions about birth control facts based on social values, they need to consider a wide range of issues. Along with choosing careers, and developing social networks, teens are under a tremendous amount of pressure from ...
