I feel your pain. Some of us.. or maybe most of us.. have complications with the hormones effecting our mood. I have been on a 20yr search to find something that works with side effects I can tolerate. Fortunately I dont have the libido problems on anything Ive tried, its more mood altering that cause me to get upset about things I know I shouldnt. I have to deal with it to regulate my period, and of course the BC aspect too. I can only offer this advice, spend at least a few months on each one and try to find something that has side effects you can deal with. Ive used the nuva ring for over a year. I did stop taking it twice for a few months to see if my period would regulate and it still hasnt.. and although I do have mood swings, it has been the best thus far.
