Hello:
My best friends suffers from Scoliosis and about 6 months ago she started using the birth control patch. Since that time it seems like her Scoliosis condition has worsened by 60% percent or more. She has began gaining weight and has chronic pain from the top of her spine to her tailbone. While she did have problems with her back before starting the birth control patch I do believe it may be causing the scoliosis to become worse. I have done some research online and cannot find any information about birth control causing scoliosis to get worse, however, I have heard that scoliosis can be triggered by fluctuations in hormone levels. My friend is a 25 year old white female. Do any of you have any information about this corelation? I would greatly appreciate any insight that you might have. Please e-mail me at swilliams171@charter.net
Thank You!
