Taking Bc With a Heart Murmur??
Posted: 09-07-06 17:08pm

Could birth control be effecting my heart murmur? My old doctor said no, but he didnt seem 100% sure of what he was talking about. Because with my heart murmur, if too much stress is caused, I get heart pains.

Heart murmurs are actually common, and I have one =)

many women with murmurs do safely take birth control, birth control does not directly affect the heart in such a way that it would be an issue..
