Some women think they need to take an occasional rest from the Pill. So they switch to a less effective form of birth control, and increase their chances of getting pregnant. Just how restful this can be is highly questionable. What is certain, however, is that there's no medical evidence that supports this notion of taking a break. None.

There are other myths, misconceptions and questions about the Pill. What about the Pill and breast cancer? Although there are conflicting reports concerning this issue, the Disease Control reported that women who were even for 15 years – ran no higher risk of breast cancer than the women who didn’t. They also reported that ovarian and uterine cancer are substantially less common among women on the Pill.

BREAK
may experience a short period of readjustment after discontinuing the Pill. But even so, they usually become pregnant soon. So does the Pill have any real risks? Yes. And you should ask your doctor. For example, if you are taking the Pill, you should not smoke. Especially if you’re over 35. Cigarette smoking is known to increase the risk of serious and possibly life-threatening effects on the heart and blood vessels from Pill use. What’s more, women with certain conditions or medical histories should not use the Pill. Even if you’re already on the Pill, you should see your doctor at least once a year. And be sure to read the patient information that’s included in every Pill package. When it comes to birth control, the best advice is to seek out the best advice. Go to reliable sources. Ask a lot of questions. Discuss all the options with your doctor. Finally, will you know where the myth ends. And the truth hears.
