Hi,

I'm on Simvastatin right now but not on birth control--I was prescribed simva for my cholesterol which was elevated--but I asked specifically to be put on this one because of the recent studies where it's helped lower testosterone.

My doctor asked if I wanted to go back on the pill but right now I don't need birth control so he said that was fine. I think the key is if the doctor asks to let him know you aren't planning on becoming pregnant.
