Question about birth control pills.....progesterine only birth control pills....?

my doctor says i cant take any more estrogen based birth control pills because iget yeast infections from the hormone. we have tried every kind of estrogen based pill that is out there and i constantly have an infection. so, he is putting me on progesterine only birth control pills as a last resort....has anyone else had this problem, tried this as a solution...or just taken these kind of pills and what should i except....has anyone else had yinfections with this type of birthcontrol...thanks sooooo much for your input!!!!!

I have taken progesterine only pills or POPs. I took them while breastfeeding my first child. There was no adverse effect but I did find that I did not experience any yeast infections. While I was on Ortho Tri Cyclen (estrogen/progesterine) I experienced a yeast infection with each monthly hormonal change. I never connected the two though. You might want to ask your doctor if you need to take any other birth control options along with the POP pills.
