What are the risks of birth control?

are there any side effects of it? me and my friend are having period issues and she was saying someone said there were risks involved..?


i would like to know what kindof risks. or the side effects.What are the risks of birth control?
I've been on many different kinds of pills and even the shots and they all have their own ricks, but i guess the most common side effects are spotting the middle of your cycle, and they all have a risk for blood clots but i have never heard of anything like that actually happeningWhat are the risks of birth control?
it depends, ive been on 6 different birth controls all of em have different side effects. Im kinda small so i'd always get sick and throw up in the morning with every new pack. Also it can either help you with acne and cramps or make them worse. Also some birth control makes you gain weight:((( Also some birth controls can make it harder to have sex, downer!!! um oh yea and sometimes different types can make you moody:( ALSO i used to have short periods but now they last forever.
