Click on the brand of pill you use and it will tell you the estrogen, progestin, and androgen rating as well as what is causing particular side effects. For instance, I learned that Loestrin 1.5/30 is actually lower estrogen than Loestrin 1/20 despite what I assumed, and that having mood swings on Alesse means I need more progestin (the site recommends Loestrin 1/20 as an alternative).
