Blood clots are a known side effect with female birth control.
This doesn't address the possibility of long term immune dysfunction from vaccines (if that even exists), but these vaccines, even the J&J seem very, very safe.
It's true that women on birth control are more likely to have this clotting happen to them (still very rare though) but the number of these cases observed following vaccination with AZ exceed the numbers that would be statistically normal in that demographic. At least here in Germany and other countries in Europe. We haven't started using the J&J in Europe yet. Start of that program has just been put on hold here
