I am 29 years old and I take contraception pills. As I understood the doctor, those pills are mixture of estrogen and progesterone. But, since I have strong headaches from time to time, that usually happens in the period time, I take diclofenac (cataflam). Can you tell me if there is a relation between cataflam and birth control pills?
As far as this relation is concerned, there is no known link. Pills for birth control indeed are a combination of estrogen and progesterone (these hormones are important in maintaining proper hormonal balance). Cataflam is meant to deal with pain and inflammation, so there should be no connection. I hope this helps a bit.
