Birth Control
"I was put on Quasense to help with abnormal vaginal bleeding.  I was on it for less than 2 months when I suffered a near fatal pulmonary embolism (blood clot in the lungs).  I am young and healthy and a non smoker... it was caused by the estrogen in the pill.   Please know that although birth control is wonderful and it is commonly prescribed, it DOES come with risks.  You never think it will happen to you.  I am using my very scary and traumatic experience to raise awareness.  

If you have any symptoms of a blood clot seek emergency medical assistance immediately:
Chest pain
Shortness of breath
Cough
Anxiety
Fainting
Rapid heart beat
Swelling or warmth in your leg or arm
