Birth control causing unthinking?
I have be taking birth control (Zovia) since November of last year. I purloin it every day same time as prescribed, at first I did not hold any side effects whatsoever, but for the past few months I enjoy been getting rash almost daily. This is the with the sole purpose medication I take and the individual thing I can reason of that may be causing this issue. The 'rash' are bumps that show up in itchy red patch on my arms, legs, back, stomach and décolletage that I do my best not to scratch. I know that at hand are warnings almost taking oral contraseptives when using tanning beds because it can cause skin irritation - since it is very soon summer and getting hotter (I live in AZ) could this be the reason they begin - if it is due to the birth control - so late after setting up them?
If not, any other ideas what it may be?
