Is risk of blood clots lowered if on POPS birth control? (progestin only pills)?

I am on a pop birth control pill (Nora-BE).Is risk of blood clots lowered if on POPS birth control? (progestin only pills)?
pills contain two components-oestrogen %26amp; progestin.


but pills may also contain progestins only-POP.


the risk of thromboembolism(heart attack,stroke,peripheral vessel diseases) r more with the pills containing oestrogen.


risk of these complications r very less with POP.
