Answers:
I'm a smoker, I won't tell you how bad smoking is because I'm sure you already know!. (I hate it when people say it to me)

About your question!. They say it's risky to smoke if you're on BC pills!. It is risky but everyone is different!. My uncle's wife is a smoker (smokes one pack a day) and takes BC pills for about 15 years now!. Nothing happened to her!. That does not mean nothing will happen to you, of course but you get the point!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Okay, first off, it may not be that huge of a risk, but over time it could be slowly decreasing the effectiveness of your birth control!. Also, if you can even admit to yourself, and other millions of people that you only smoke for "social reasons" then its not that important to you, or your health and you dont need to be doing that to your own body just because others think its cool!. Even at times when you may think its cool, its not, and it really wont be cool when your birth control isnt working for you then you become pregnant, and start sharing your bad habits with an unborn child all because you just wanted to be "cool"!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think you have anything to worry about!.!. I mean everyone is different!.!. but most of my friends smoke over a pack a day and are on the pill and nothing's happened!.!. but once again everyone is different!. So just be careful!Www@Answer-Health@Com

The incidence of cancer in women over 30 who take the pill and smoke is higher!. Though no amount of smoking is good for you, I don't think it is a huge risk!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't smoke, your shortening your life!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
