birth control
"I've been on Alesse for three months now, and although I haven't suffered any weight loss/gain, acne or nausea I have felt extremely fatigued and lethargic. Not to mention the fact that my period would randomly start halfway through when I still had 7 or 8 active pills left. And when my period did start I would suffer bouts of depression, crying for no reason, spending all day in bed and entertaining a few suicidal thoughts. 



I will be discontinuing use of Alesse and I plan to speak with my doctor about other alternatives. 



As a contraceptive the pills work, but they are not worth the side effects I was eduring"
