Hi, How Do I Know Which Birth Control Pill Is

Hi,
How do I know which birth control pill is right for me? I took YAZ for 3 months only 8 years ago and my body didn't like it at all. I was feeling dizzy (vertigo kind of feeling) and was not able to stand on my feet for longer time. I had to hold on to something or lay down. Very weird feeling I don't want to experience again. Very scary.
I am in my late 30's and have 2 children. I am very miserable (usually 5-6 days after my period) and have very law sex drive. Very moody and just not ready for action. I am guessing I am ovulating those days when I have the pain and I don't know how to help myself. Maybe the right birth control pill can make a difference without severe side effects?

Please advise!
Thank you!
