are the risks

Hi Cheryl,

This is a great question ... and I don't know the answer. Have you asked your gyn about this?

My guess would be that the amount of estrogen could be a contributor ... the higher the dose of estrogen perhaps a greater risk of blood clots? (But I've never read this anywhere.)

Maybe someone else will come along with more facts about this.

Beth
