I have factor V, never had a blood clot
Since 2003 I have had a total of 12 months on the combined pill, condoms otherwise.

I fancy ditching condoms for a bit, not desperate though. 100%don't want anything I can't stop myself immediately (I.e. the coil) so pill or condoms.

It seems the mini pill is good for those with clotting disorders. Does anyone with factor V have experience of it and which brand did you get?

Want some research before ibspeak to GP!
