You can be allergic to anything.

Yes you can. Not the actual birth control, but an ingredient in the pill perhaps.

Some people get bad reactions from certain versions of the pill, some people are allergic to the latex in some condoms... I'd say yes.

Yeah, you can be allergic to some of the chemicals used in it.

yea
if women can be allergic to sperm why not birth control?
there could be some stuff in the pills that you could be allergic to


-- Posted by tearsinheaven at 1:45 pm on Dec. 9, 2008

yes. not the actual hormones, because your body makes those already, but other chemicals.

Yeah.

You can be allergic to one of the chemicals/ingredients in it.

Not really. Birth control is estrogen, and if you're allergic to that, you've got bigger issues. However, the non-medical ingredients, fillers, etc. can cause reactions.
