Contraceptive pills can be a safe and effective option for preventing pregnancy when chosen according to your health profile. There are two main types, combined oral contraceptive pills containing estrogen and progestin, and progestin-only pills. The right option depends on factors such as your age, blood pressure, smoking status, migraine history, breastfeeding status, and any existing medical conditions or medicines you take.
Please consult a gynaecologist before starting a contraceptive pill so they can recommend the most suitable option and explain how to take it correctly. Remember that contraceptive pills do not protect against sexually transmitted infections, so condoms are recommended if there is an STI risk
