It's best to sleep without pillow when you sleep on your back but when you sleep side lying you can use firm and medium height pillow to balance your head and shoulder height.pillow should not be too height than your shoulder.

I would recommend you to use pillow on side lying. Without pillow when you lie on your sides, either side of your neck will get strain.

You should use pillow on side lying but when  lying with back should not use pillow. Sleeping without pillow is good for natural spinal posture correction.

In my opinion lying on the back you could sleep without a pillow. But on the side, use a pillow.
