My dermatologist seems unclear on wherever or not I have to get blood drawn to take BCP. Did any of you get your blood drawn and why?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Noo, neither my dermatologist or my general doctor made me draw blood for BCP perscriptions. However, if you're sexually active you'll have to go through some tests, or if you're going on accutane then you definitely need some pregnancy tests. If you're not going on accutane or aren't sexually active then you don't need any testing to get a prescription for birth control whistling.gif)

I never had any blood taken before being prescribed birth control.

definitely never had to have a blood test for any form of contraceptive.
