Okay I have another question... don`t I always!!
Has anyone else noticed that they shed/lose hair more while taking the pill? I`m not losing clumps of hair, but I seem to be shedding a lot more than usual. My hair doesn`t seem any thinner though. My mom said that when she was on the pill she seemed to shed. Anyone else?

I just went off the pill so I`ll have to pay attention and see if I notice a difference.

I don`t know, but I have this distant (not really biological) cousin, see? This girl was
born with NO HAIR and no doctor could fix this. EVER. Apparently, it`s due to a
disruption caused by her promiscuous mother`s use of the pill. I would never want
anything to do with the pill. I think it`s a satanic invention. It has serious side effects
(eg. for both mother and child) and I have heard ( money-hugging docs won`t
perhaps tell you this if they know) that it can kill fertilized eggs and thus cause
abortions. I can therefore say nothing good about it.

Duke--It depends on what pill you are using. The pill I`m on stops a woman from ovulating (producing an egg) It is possible to get pregnant while on this pill and so it does not kill fertilized eggs. I would not take it if there was that possibility. There is a pill they are trying to make available that does kill fertilized eggs. I hope it never gets approved.

Whoa.... damn... I didn`t expect a bible thumping! Sorry, but I don`t quite agree that the pill is satanic! For me its a god send, with out it I`d be a just another single teenage mother living off of welfare and with out a degree (i`d have to leave school). So far the only side effects I`ve noticed are lack of PMS, regular mestration, decresed change of ovarian and breast cancer, and no babies.... gee thats really satanic! Okay so maybe if I shed more than usual its not great but it keeps me happy, healthy, and sane.
