Birth Control Eligibility and Safety — What the Physician Reviews
Birth control is safe for most people, but estrogen-containing methods carry risk for some. Before prescribing, the licensed doctor takes a blood-pressure reading and screens for contraindications so the method chosen is right for you.
- Blood pressure — a recent or self-measured reading is reviewed; available machines are available at many Cochrane Shoppers Drug Mart, Rexall, and Walmart pharmacy locations.
- Clot history — a history of blood clots, DVT, or PE means estrogen-containing methods (combined pill, patch, ring) are not prescribed; a mini-pill may still be an option.
- Migraines and smoking — migraine with aura, or smoking over age 35, also rule out combined methods; the doctor can consider a progestin-only pill instead.
- Other factors — uncontrolled high blood pressure or a current pregnancy are screened for. If a combined method is not appropriate, a safer option is usually still available.
