Birth control & surgery
Hey guys, I need your help =/
In a few weeks I'm getting a wisdom tooth pulled and they're going to put me under anesthesia. One of the questions on the paper when my mom filled it out was 'are you on birth control' and she put no, but i am .. and she can't find out. Will being on birth control effect my surgery in any way? I'm going to call the office once i find the number, but for now I'm starting to get nervous, i can't get off the pill because i see my boyfriend soon xD
HELP!

Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
You absolutely MUST tell the anesthetist that you are taking birth control. Birth control can effect your bloods ability to clot and to flow, and it might effect the type of sedative the doctor selects.
If you plan on simply stoping the birth control until your surgury do so TODAY! Not Tommorrow, not next week. Today.
Don't mess around with anesthetics. They are dangerous and when things go wrong, they can go very wrong.

if i was you i'd get off the pill
your heath is more important then sex
i don't think its that big of a deal
but the hormones from the pill might affect the anesthesia and how it works so i'd get off the pill and definitly call the doctor
