What Causes Mood Swings While Taking Noriday?

How long does Noriday (mini-pill) stay in the stystem. Also I have had really bad mood swings on and off with high and low peaks in my moods ever since starting the pill, I cannot have the combined as I suffer from migraines and Breast cancer is genetic, I am wondering what other forms of contraception I could use, or would it be better to just use condoms as I don t want anything that is going to affect my mood?
