What are the Possible Side Effects of Hormonal Birth Control Methods?
Birth control methods using hormones come in three common forms, pill, patch and ring. There are side effects of hormonal birth control methods that apply to all of these forms, and some that are unique to each form. Side effects of hormonal birth control methods can depend much on the level of hormones taken, which varies with the many different pills and methods available, and also may be more significant for people in certain risk groups. Another group of hormonal birth control contains only one hormone and has slightly different side effects and risks/benefits.
