Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX
Welcome
I have gone through your query.

It depends on the stages of menstrual cycles. There is significant variation at different stages of the menstrual cycle. I'll mention them
during menstruation: 2-4 mm
early proliferative phase (day 6-14): 5-7 mm
late proliferative / preovulatory phase: up to 11 mm
secretory phase: 7-16 mm.
So probably there should not be any problem.
I pill won't cause cancer .
Hope this helps
Take care.
