A member asked:

I am using 5 tablets of registron every month for past 15years to get periods. will cause breast cancer? as this is harmone if i continue further?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

5 tablets: Highly unlikely that you will develop breast cancer because of this. That said, please discuss this soon with your Gynecologist. Do you really need Registron for 15 years? Discuss this also with your doctor. Please let me know how things develop.
