15 years?: This is a bit of strange regiment to be using for 15 years for cycle regulation. Birth control pills may be a better choice for long term use. The risks of long term use must be weighed against the benefits for each individual so that a proper plan of care can be arranged.

15 years: It is highly unlikely that 15 years of Registron should be the cause of breast cancer. Please see a Gynecologist about this. I am fairly confident that things will turn out to be OK.
