    If you were taking birth control pills and that is what caused the PE then you can never take any bc that has estrogen again. You will need to use BC that is progesterone no estrogen. So an IUD is OK to use. My pe's were from OCP and i am not longer able to use them. I have the Mirena now. I work at an OB/GYN and you aren't supposed to have any estrogen BC if that caused the clots
