I'm 17 years old and I started taking ortho tri cyclen lo about five months ago.. I'd been feeling kinda crappy for a while and my chyropractic doctor fixed most of the problem, except that I have a high heart rate... When she takes it, it's usually around 110 sometimes 120 sometimes only 90... She thinks it might be from my BC..is this possible?

Hypertension is a potential side effect of contraceptive pills. Do you recall what your blood pressure readings have been?

I don't remember the exact numbers no..But I do recall the doctor's telling me it was very normal everytime they took it. I think it was something like..117/80 or something???

Those are good numbers for blood pressure. I'm still not sure about the racing heart. I haven't seen anything in reference with BCP's, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. Also look at things such as caffeine intake and possibly even nerves when visiting your physician. Keep in close touch with your physician and make a return visit if you get too uncomfortable or too nervous about the condition.
