It is true that taking the Alysena (Alesse) pill may slightly increase your risk of developing blood clots compared to women who do not take it. However, this increased risk is still very low and is more common in the first few months of taking the pill. It is important to be aware of the signs of blood clots, such as sudden leg pain/swelling/redness or difficulty breathing, and to seek medical help promptly if these symptoms occur. The risk of developing blood clots after receiving the COVID vaccine is not higher than usual, as the blood clots associated with the vaccine are a different immune response unrelated to those occurring in other circumstances. Additionally, at your age, you will likely receive the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine.
