[x]   Transcript: The birth control Pill was invented in 1960, and has exploded in popularity since then. Today, you can choose from 40 kinds of oral contraceptives! The most common type of birth control pill is the muliphasic form, which contains different levels of the reproductive hormones estrogen and progestin each week. Multiphasic pills are over 99 percent effective when used correctly.Some multiphasic pills, like Mircette, change hormones once during a womans cycle. Other multiphasics, like Orthro Tri-Cyclen, alter hormone levels once a week. These are also known as triphasic Pills. Both forms of multiphasic pills contain 21 active tablets and seven placebos. While taking placebos, a woman will usually have her period. Multiphasic pills are a good choice for women who are sensitive to the steady doses of hormones delivered by other forms of oral contraception. But multiphasic pills wont work for women who cant take estrogen, or for those who are bothered by light breakthrough bleeding. If youre not sure about multiphasics, check out our other videos on picking the ideal birth control Pill for you!
