I've just switched to seasonale because I
have bad cramps and headaches when i'm on
my period, so I thought this was a good
choice. I am experiencing extreme
moodiness and can cry at the drop of a
hat. I don't feel like myself anymore and
am getting concerned because others have
noticed, my husband included. Although my
sex drive has increased, I feel angry or
sad a lot of the time. I'm only into week
3, but i'm debating if I should go back to
my other pills. I did very well on them,
but looked forward to the 4 periods/year
thing. I don't know if this is all in my
head or if this pill really can do this
but i'm trying to decide if I should wait
another month or switch back. My husband
and I usually get along very well but
lately i'm upset about everything! Other
than that I haven't noticed other major
changes, but then again, i'm just
starting. I'd appreciate any advice.

I recently went on seasonale because the
thought of 4 periods a year sounded good.
I am here to tell you that it made me so
moody and upset feeling, I hate this
pill, I am going back to yasmin. Plus
on seasonale you bleed all the time it
seems like and on yasmin my periods were
so predictable. '

Seasonale: Weight Gain Posted: 06-07-05 00:22am
Well, I have been on seasonale for almost
a year now. It is o.K. When it comes to
periods. They are not to bad and are
short. But, my moods!! Oh my gosh! I
am either happy or crying. Or throwing
objects!Haha! Also, my weight has went
up and I haven't changed anything in my
diet or exercise. Has anyone noticed
weight gain? Maybe it is me, but it is
not fun.

Seasonale And Moodiness Posted: 08-11-06 07:28am
Just started my 5th month on seasonale. I
have really noticed a difference in my
moods...Extremely upset, angry, and
depressed at certain times. I don't know
if I can continue with this...I don't feel
like myself.

[i have been on seasonale for about 18
months now and I take it continuously
without having 4 periods per year. I do
this because I have endometriosis and it
causeses me to have nearly constant
bleeding and cramping. At any rate, I am
about to try to switch to something else
because I have absolutley no sex drive at
all. I also have had moodiness and more
acne problems and possibly some weight
gain. Anyone have any suggestions on a
bcp with low sexual side effects?
Thanks

My sister was on seasonale and didnt find
out she was pregnant untill she was almost
3 months along because she went so long
before she was supposed to have a
period...
i decided to stick with the normal birth
control, and have a period every
month...!!!!
