Input: Of 23 trials included, 19 examined contraceptive effectiveness. The triphasic and monophasic preparations did not differ significantly. About half of the included trials reported favorable bleeding patterns, that is less spotting, breakthrough bleeding or amenorrhea, in triphasic versus monophasic OC users. However, meta-analysis was generally not possible due to differences in measuring and reporting the cycle disturbance data as well as differences in progestogen type and hormone dosages. No significant differences were found in the numbers of women who discontinued due to medical reasons, cycle disturbances, intermenstrual bleeding or adverse events. The available evidence is insufficient to determine whether triphasic OCs differ from monophasic OCs in effectiveness, bleeding patterns or discontinuation rates. Therefore, we recommend monophasic pills as a first choice for women starting OC use. Large, high-quality RCTs that compare triphasic and monophasic OCs with identical progestogens are needed to determine whether triphasic pills differ from monophasic OCs. Future studies should follow the recommendations of Belsey or Mishell on recording menstrual bleeding patterns and the CONSORT reporting guidelines.
Output:

We did a computer search for studies of pills with three phases versus pills with one phase in May 2011. We also wrote to researchers and manufacturers to find other trials. We included randomized trials in any language. The studies had to follow women for at least three treatment cycles. We found 23 trials that looked at three-phase versus one-phase birth control pills. Many studies did not have good methods and the authors did not always report all their methods. The two types of pills did not differ in the numbers of women who got pregnant. About half of the trials found better bleeding patterns with the three-phase pill. The numbers of women who stopped using the pills were about the same for both types of pills. The evidence was not strong enough to say whether the three-phase pill was better than the one-phase pill for pregnancy prevention, bleeding patterns, or continued use. Therefore, we recommend one-phase pills for women starting to use birth control pills. Large trials that are of good quality are needed to see if pills with three phases work better than those with one phase.
