I know smoking cigarettes and taking birth control and being over 35 are dangerous. Are the effects the same if you smoke marijuana and use nicotine gum while using birth control? Is it the smoke its self or is it the tar ect. What exactly is it?What exactly is it about smoking and birth control ?
It is the fact that it can cause you to develop a blood clot. If that blood clot breaks off and travels, it can travel to the lung/heart (pulmonary embolism/stroke/heart attack). My guess is that smoking (and my guess is that smoking of any kind!) and taking birth control pills will make your blood platlates become 'stickier' and able to form a clot more easily.
