apparently prolonged use of the pill gives you more chances of high blood pressure and heart attacks - since that is something that runs on my mothers side, I have to stay away from those.
I was reading a bunch of articles about the pill on the internet and not one said anything about the pill giving you more chances of high blood pressure and heart attacks but they did say that if you already have a history of heart attack, stroke, blood clots, breast, uterine or liver cancer you should keep away from it. Also, women who are 35 or older and smoke more than 15 cigarettes a day shouldn't take it. I also read that the pill reduces the risk of ovarian cancer, endometrial (uterine) cancer, pelvic inflammatory disease, benign ovarian cysts and iron deficiency anemia.
So, the pill doesn't cause heart problems and the likes but if a person already has those problems the pill can aggravate them. In fact as you can see people with a history of uterine cancer shoudn't take the pill but with people that never had that type of cancer the pill actually helps prevent it.
Anyway I could use with some high blood pressure because mine's usually very low. I've been taking the pill since I was 17 and never had any problems.

That's make him like half the guys I know, which is kinda sad, because almost any of the guys I hang out with have bigger breasts than my best female friend.
No, those aren't called breasts they're called fat! :p
