I"m on Ovcon, and have been for several years. I"m fine on it. I tried Yasmin for 2 months last year, and called my doc to put me back on Ovcon. Yasmin made me incredibly moody and cranky.

Is TriLevlin a triphasic pill? I'm not familiar with that one. Triphasic's tend not to be best for PCOSers, since we need hormonal stability, not variance.
