I took birth control pills for years when I was in my 20’s. The more I read about having uterine fibroids, the more I really believe that all those extra hormones I was putting into my mouth every morning has lead to these growths. Have you heard about the lawsuits that have been filed and settled against the manufacturers of the Ortho Evra Birth Control Patch? They have linked the patch to life threatening events such as blood clots, strokes, heart attacks, pulmonary embolism, other serious injuries, and even death in young women. These risk are increased if the woman is a smoker. The users of the patch are exposed to increased estrogen in their bloodstream, which is well known to increase all these risks in women. If you, or a loved one, is having any symptoms such as the ones I listed, you really need to talk to a lawyer that specializes in these types of cases like a Seattle personal injury attorney. They have the experience in these cases to help you get the compensation you deserve.

I’ve been wondering if my being on the pill the past couple years has sped my fibroids along at a more rapid pace. I’ve always had problems, but I could I have been nudging them along when I was trying to make them better?
