Recommend A Safe Contraceptive Pill

I was on Jasmin pills for for years and I suffered very strong headaches. I stopped taking them in October but since then I started loosing my hair dramatically! I did overall health check but it says that i am perfectly healthy. I think this may have something to do with the hormones? I need to take contraceptive pills again but don't want the Jasmine ones..any suggestions? which pills could help to avoid further hair loss?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, all the hormone based contraceptive medicines shares the same side effects, as long as the headache is concern it may not be due to contraceptive medicine but it seems to be due to tension headache, it may be due to migraine, it could be due to systemic disease, but may not be due to contraceptive medicine, hope this information helps.
