Hormonal Birth Control is sometimes used to lower the risk of new formation of follicular cysts. Contrary to "common knowledge," birth control doesn't "dissolve" existing cysts. Some methods of hormonal birth control, such as the contraceptive implant, may include a slightly increased risk of follicular cysts. Anecdotally, most GYN health care providers prefer a monophasic pill with a short placebo period for lowering the risk of follicular cysts.

What is the best birth control to use if you are 23 and have polycystic ovarian syndrome?

Any hormonal birth control method will lower the increased risk of endometrial cancer that comes with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Desogestrel has the most research showing effectiveness against acne and hirsutism, but, when considering the use of birth control pills over large numbers of women, about any pill will help with those symptoms. The levels of spironolactone available in Yasmin and related pills with drosperinone don't come close to the levels used in the treatment of PCOS; in my opinion, there's no compelling reason to choose these over other alternatives in women with PCOS.
