Choosing the right contraceptive pill depends on your health history, lifestyle, and preferences. There are two main types: Combined Oral Contraceptive (COC), which contains estrogen and progestogen. It regulates periods but isn?t suitable if you have high blood pressure, migraines with aura, or smoke and are over 35. Progestogen-Only Pill (POP or mini-pill): Contains only progestogen. It is safe for breastfeeding mothers and those who cannot tolerate estrogen. Since certain medical conditions dictate which pill is safe for you, please consult a healthcare provider. They will check your blood pressure and history to prescribe the ideal option.
