Women who use birth control pills are more likely to develop pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), iron-deficiency anemia, and osteoporosis than women who use other forms of contraception. True or false?

False. Women who use birth control pills are not most likely to develop PID, anemia and osteoprosis.

Birth control pills are basically used to prevent pregnancy. Birth control pills work by preventing ovulation. No egg is produced, so there is nothing for the sperm to fertilize. Hence, pregnancy cannot occur.

1) intermenstrual spotting

2) nausea

3) breast tenderness

4) headaches and migraine

5) weight gain

7) missed periods
