Guest guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 What has everyone heard about taking birth control with PSC? I take Yaz, not to prevent pregnancy but for other physical symptoms. It helps enormously, but I am reading a little more about possible cholesterol effects. Of course I will talk with my GI too, he doesn't know I am on Yaz as I was off for several months. I went back on this month, and get a slap on the wrist for taking them BEFORE asking, I just didn't think about it. I don't know if the benefit would outweigh the risk, but the benefit is huge lol. ee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Hey, ee! Hope your day's going great. For what it's worth, my doctors told me that I couldn't take birth control of any kind. Unfortunately, I don't remember the reason anymore. I hope your case is different and they let you stay on the Yaz! Sandi in VA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Hi ee, I have never been told birth control is a big no no but at the same time, there is an understanding that it is. I'm 24 and am not prescribed any birth control at all. Funnily enough back in 2002 i had the birth control jab and the next weekend i was ill put in hospital and diagnosed with all this!!! Coinscidence? I think not. Merry Christmas (uk, psc & uc 2002) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 I quit THE PILL as soon as I found out I had this disease since they are not good for your liver.
