Hi. I've had problems in the past with bc pills--moodiness/ depression and low sex drive (I've been on Desogen, Demulen, and Low-Ogestrel), but I love the benefits of being on the pill--regulated period, less cramping, and clearer skin, as well as the obvious benefit of preventing pregnancy. As I've never been on a tri-phasal pill I thought that might work better for me, and my gyn gave me samples of Ortho TriCyclen Lo to try; she also suggested Yasmin and the Nuvaring as alternatives. I know everyone has different reactions, but I figured I'd get as much input as I can. I also don't know anyone who's used the Nuvaring. Anyone want to share their experiences on Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo, Yasmin, or the Nuvaring--particularly those who've had depression and libido problems on the Pill in the past? Thanks!!
