What is a good birth control for someone with heavy/irregular periods and hormonal imbalance?

I am currently on Yasmin, I've been taking it for about 4 months now. I have really liked it; it really helped with my period and I think it made PMS a little better too. I haven't had any side effects (besides my getting bigger (which was awesome) and feeling tender which was no big deal since they always felt tender during PMS before I went on bc which would often last 2+ weeks). However, I am becoming nervous about taking it now that there are various law suits going on against it--I keep hearing about pulmonary embolisms and gallstones and liver damage, etc. It sucks. Anyway, I was wondering what might be a good birth control to switch to--something that would help even out my hormones without negative side effects and stuff. Any suggestions?
