l know the mini pill doesn't contain any oestrogen but l was wondering what does oestrogen actually do? Why do some women opt for the mini-pill instead of the combined pill? Thanks xWhat is the difference between the combined pill that contains progesterone and oestrogen and the mini-pill?The combined pill can cause a lot of complications with progesterone and ooestrogen, estrogen can cause brest cancer and various other health problems as can HRT medication. The mini pill does not contain these things and does not interfere with the female hormones. the combined pills work in coordination with your monthly cycle to stop you producing an egg, the mini pill only coats the womb with a substance to stop the egg from implanting in the womb. Oestrogen is a female hormone and gives us breasts. Some woman cannot take the combined pill or HRT due to a family history if breast cancer. My sister had a breast cancer lump removed and undergoing chemo, I spoke to the doctor about HRT for the menopause and hot flushing and she will not give me it because my sister had breast cancer as it contains oestrogen which can cause breast cancer and would put me at a higher risk if i took HRT which contains oestrogen.
