Here, we help you get a head start:  Monophasic. If you&amp;#039;re plagued by the hormonal ups and downs of PMS, you may benefit from monophasic pills.

This Pill contains only progestin, making it a good alternative if you have adverse reactions to estrogen (for example, if you get migraine headaches or have a history of blood clots or high blood pressure).
