I dont think this is a good idea myself, women going on the pill or already on it should have health checks before using it....
also it can have serious side effects too...

Raised blood pressure
A very small number of women may develop a blood clot which can block a vein (venous thrombosis) or an artery (arterial thrombosis, heart attack or stroke)
A small increase in risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer
A small increase in the risk of cervical cancer if the pill is used continuously for more than five years...

so why on earth would they sell it online?....some are also saying kids could get their hands on it too

But what is strange is why pay nearly £30 for it when ya can get it free from ya doctor
Is this a British Web Site panther, if it is don't think much of their business plan, when women can get it free of charge from family planning or their GP
