Is there a best brand type of contraceptive pill for PCOS?

Hi all

After 5 years of infertility issues, I'm finally at the point where I'm now giving up trying. I want to just get on with life.

I am looking to go back on the pill as I'm tired of the heavy painful periods and want some relief for a year maybe. I am finding the hirsutism worse all the time and supposedly the pill can help with this.

Is there any brand type in particular that is better for PCOS? I was on microgynon as a teenager but I have been reading Yasmin is good for people with PCOS but just wanted some insight :)

Thanks very much!
