Birth control concerns
I don't exactly have a problem, but just some questions about birth control. i was just wondering about estrogen and progesterone that's contained in birth control. i've gotten the progesterone hormone pill and i was wondering when focused on one hormone more than the other if it will be as effective as the combination pill, which contains both hormones? also i was wondering if using just this synthetic progesterone, will it decrease my estrogen levels?

If you use a combination pill it would be better for you ,as it maintains the balance required without any side effects.
