I am gay, and i want to take pills only micropil when i will see the effect of micropil? progesterone can help to prevent prostate cancer?

Progesterone mimics: Pregnancy, may cause breast enlargement, and is commonly a component of birth control pills. It's not the best first step for gender re-assignment, will not alter your gender identity. I would not do this if i wanted to be straight, more feminine, or on my own, i'd get some advice from a sympathetic doctor and a psychologist to sort out your issues with you.
