It's an individual thing to be completely honest - what works well for one woman may not work for another. Statistically the combined pill is more reliable than the mini pill (but some women can't use combined). You wont know until you try one what is best for you.

The best thing to do is discuss the options with your doctor and go from there.

the doctor will put you on a pill taking in considerations of your health. for example i have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and a family history of cancer. i dont drink or smoke. so i was put on a low dose birth control.

if your breast feeding the doctor may put you on a mini pill.
and it also depends on what your insurance will cover.
but i want to email you information about different birth control pills.
