How Safe Are Birth Control Pills?

I have never believed in taking "The Pill" because of how it chemically alters your own natural hormones. I have always believed that if women are suffering menstrual discomfort and debilitating symptoms from menstruation, that being put on "The Pill" is not the right answer. I know many women who were "put" on The Pill by their Doctor's to ease monthly menstruation symptoms, however that is because they don't understand how to balance the hormones naturally, so that has been their answer. Now, they have a pill so that you NEVER get your period, further altering what the body is meant to do. Pharmaceutical Companies are NOT the enemy, however they WILL find a pill for anything imaginable and it is up to Doctors and US to say NOT INTERESTED! Read HERE, an e-article about The New Pill.
