A member asked:

I have been prescribed cerazette because my mother had breast cancer and have been taking for over two years now. is this the correct diagnosis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Slight advantage: Cerazette has only progestogen with out estrogen as in common combined birth control pill , less clotting problems , could be used during breast feeding , still has very slight risk of breast cancer , if this is the issue , why don't you adapt non medication b c like iud . Speak to your doctor
