Side Effects of Birth Control Pills

There are three types of birth control pills: the “Mini Pill” or Progestin (POP); the “Combination Pill”, a combination of estrogen and progestin; and the “Emergency Pill”. Birth control pills are very effective in preventing pregnancy, but they’re also reversible because fertility returns if you stop taking them. Birth control pills also reduce menstrual cramps, menstrual pain, and have proven to be quite safe.  Although there are many advantages of taking birth control pills, most pills have possible side effects in some women.
