happysign asked:

I have been under loads of stress lately and I’m taking Errin (a progestoren only pill) and I wonder if my stress can reduce the effectiveness of the pill. Can I get pregnant? Or is the stress harmless? Besides the obvious harmful things stress does to the body.

Thanks!

Chentelle asked:

I am 33 and in very good health.
I workout and eat right.
My blood pressure has always been on the low side.
I have just been through a very stressful time in my life and all of a sudden my blood pressure has gone up to between 135 over 92 to 148 over 109 / I have checked it at different times over the past few days after having a nurse tell me it was to high durring a life insurance exam. Can stress do this?
