Need help...verrry depressed

I have been taking Sprintec since the beginning of Janaury. Since I started taking it, I have been crying a RIDICULOUS amount. Every day, over nothing. I have gained weight also, these have been my only 2 symptoms. I thinkg I need a different pill, maybe a monophasic pill? I don't care about the weight gain anymore as long as I stop crying and feeling depressed. It has made me severely moody and upset. I can't take it anymore! I haven't been on the pill in a few years, but the last time I was on it I didn't feel like this. Does anyone have any suggestions for a pill that will not cause me to be so severely upset and moody? I've heard good things about Alesse, but then heard it was discontinued? What does everyone think..

Thank you...do you think Alesse is a good formulation for the moodswings? I'm doing my research but there are so many options !

It sounds like you've given it the suggested 3 month try. I'd switch pills. I love Seasonale. No mood swings at all.

Good luck,
