vaginapaginaFor women with high blood pressure, what kind of birth control do you use?
My doctor is having a hard time figuring out why my BP is high and my medication won't curb it and he won't issue me birth control until it's down. Planned Parenthood won't issue me birth control without a doctor's notice because of the BP issue, too.
I'm considering going to a gyno and discussing a hormone free IUD, but I'm only 18 and in an only semi-serious relationship. Is the gyno going to turn me down because of my BP, too? Cause I can't afford to go and not get something out of the visit.
