Question

i used it for about four months and just got an e-mail from the company saying that it has been linked to women's death in there early twenty's other issues include Stroke, blood clots ,infertility,and others

Answer 1

Yup, all birthcontrol says right on it that it may cause blood clots and that chance will increase with smoking. I was in the hospital the other day because I was having trouble breathing and tingles down my arm. They said that I have a blood clot in my lung that could be caused from the birthcontrol. (and i dont smoke) These blood clots can pop up anywhere...your heart, lungs, anywhere in your body. So yes its true.

Answer 2

Many birth control pills have the same side effects in the small print area.  Make sure not to smoke with the patch or pills because this makes the risk even higher.
