A member asked:

I was advised to swap my birth control pills from 0.3 estrogen to 0.2 estrogen due to sour breasts and quite big mood swings. does this change have a big impact or it doesn't change too much? is it better to have less estrogen generally?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Although it also depends on the type and amount of progestin that is also contained in your birth control pill, a lower amount of estrogen should help your symptoms. In general, it is best to take a birth control that contains the least amount of estrogen possible to reduce your risk of developing breast cancer, endometrial cancer, blood clots, stroke, or cardiovascular disease in the long run.
