"i was on apri for about a year. the first few months i would randomly get hot and feel like i was going to vomit. that went away after a few months. i never got pregnant but also used the pull out method. i was just hospitalized for two blood clots in my right arm and pulmonary embolisms. my doctor thinks the birth control is what has done this. i don&#039;t think i will ever take birth control again, not sure what to do now because i don&#039;t want children right now. i am a healthy 25 year old woman who should not have blood clots and so far they have found no other reason why i would have blood clots. birth control is dangerous!!"
