No, Birth Control pills do not contain testosterone. They typically contain synthetic versions of the hormones estrogen and progestin, which work to prevent pregnancy by suppressing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus.

Does more estrogen balance excess testosterone in women?

Found the following at http://www.diagnose-me.com/cond/C621300.html under Recommendations and Treatments for high Testosterone Level: Hormone - Estrogen Replacement "Low estrogens allow the circulating androgens and testosterone to be more freely available and thus stimulate cells more. Increasing the circulating estrogen in the blood by taking estrogens will increase the proteins that bind the androgens and help decrease the effects of all androgens, whether the levels are normal or excessive." Also from http://www.drmirkin.com/women/1233.html "Just taking birth control pills markedly lower a woman's blood levels of testosterone because the estrogen in birth control pills shuts down the brain that produces FSH the hormone that causes the ovaries to produce testosterone." Not certain on the reliability of these sources, but either or both might be correct. So the higher your estrogen level, the lower your testosterone level will be? x
