Hi there, for the past year and a bit I have been on the combined pill (I have also come down in weight from a size 24 - 1
my blood pressure when I take in the house on a blood pressure monitor system is fine, doesn't go above about 120 on the top and above about 73 on the bottom. When I went to get the next lot of pills my blood pressure was taken at 149 / 96 (I am quite stressed at the moment with personal home problems). So they put me on a Progestogen-only pill (POP). Before being put onto the COC pill I was on one of the set of tablets before they made me bleed a considerable amount and I couldn't get up and leave the house and get to work (which is 5 mins away) without being covered in blood. I explained this to the lady that gave me these tablets and said it is better to bleed like that than burst a blood vessel. I can understand that but I can't go through that again. I can't do anything otherwise. So I was wondering if I could take blood pressure tablets with the COC pill. At least with that pill I knew exactly where I was and could live a normal sort of life without worrying that I would cover anything with blood.
If you could help I would be very grateful
Thank you Monkey47
