birth control pills and ecstasy

[poddybabes]

hi, i've just started taking the combined pill, but have been taking ecstasy and smoking marijuanafor the past couple of years. i was wondering if anyone knows whether the pill is as effective if i'm on an e. does it reduce its protection because of the e?
hope someone can enlighten me...

thanx,
pod

Don't know to be exact. But I can't imagine that it's too safe. I know smoking is bad combined with b-control pills. So, I can imagine X use is worse. Ie - higher heart rate, etc. I know it's embarrasing to ask the doctor about that, but perhaps you should.
Question for you - has the use of X given you prolonged headaches and swollen glands in your neck?

thanx for ur reply... maybe i should just ask the doctor. new year coming up and i know it's goin to be a heavy session!

on the answer to ur question - no i can't say i have swollen glands or headaches any more than usual. i know it has affected me, i often find myself drifting and just phasing out, and twitches which are kinda weird but i guess that's the consequences u have to face when u use a-class drugs...

sorry i couldn't be of more help to u...

i am on the pill....
and i took ecstasy last night.. and this morning my glands are swollen like crazy in my neck...
is this a normal side effect that happens because of the mixture?
is there anything else that is dangerous? ..
