I started on the pill (mini pill) just 9
days ago, since then I have gotten 2
canker sores and it looks like a have
another 1 or 2 starting. Ive googled and
only found one other person who was
concerend about this, but they were given
no answers. Any information would be
appreciated.

Welcome to ehealth! Sorry it wasn't under
better circumstances. You could call your
dr, your pharmacist or even the b/c
manufacturing company but I would
definitely call your dr and see what
he/she suggests.
Good luck!

If it is a cold sore, then it is caused by
the hsv1 virus, or oral herpes. This is
not caused by pills, it is caused by
transmission of the virus from another
person.
Canker sores are often caused by germs,
and other infected persons.

I thought it seemed a little strange but I
always feel that anything is possible but
either way you should go see your dr
asap.
Good luck!

Thank you guys. And thanks for the
welcome!
Its not a cold sore, its on the inside
center of my bottom lip. This did seems
like an odd question to ask, and I wouldnt
imagine that it would be from the pill,
but the timing and severity is just
strange

Do you bite your nails? Many women that
bite their nails will often notice an
increase in canker sores or painful spots
on the tongue, this is caused by the
introduction of germs.
