YES. I really thought it was just me because I did this with the last pill I was on too.

Oh, no.... not just you. I think my best Triphasil moment was when I decided that what i had seen that day on "The Young and the Restless" was just to much to bear!!! And I wept for like an hour..... over tv..... not even real tv.... a sopa opera.....something was seriously wrong with that picture....

I tried the patch and the thought of blow drying my hair one day had me bursting into tears, I also had crazy mood swings. It was just too much hormone for me, and I wasn't too fond of the skin issues and weight gain either. Everyone's body is different and I know there are things that worked at one point in my life I had no problems with and now that I am older and not in puberty that I can't tolerate. I am very thankful for the new types on the market because I take it for a medical problem and my last resort before the Nuva-Ring was surgery that would render me unable to carry a child. I say NO to that, and yes to Nuva-Ring.

My crazy hormone moment was with Seasonale when I broke down hysterically crying and was unconsolable because my goldfish died.

My ob/gyn told me to avoid Seasonale. She said the breakthru bleeding was ridiculous and that the symptoms could last for 6-8 months. She would only prescribe that for someone who in their case having their cycle was more painful than dealing with the hormone swings and the breakthru bleeding. Was she right?

Oh yea. The break through bleeding was so bad that it was actually significantly heavier than my period on its worst day. And it lasted for 18 days straight. I went to the doctor and ended up being sent to the hospital to get an anemia test because I was losing so much blood. Yea you only get your period four times a year, they just forget to mention that it lasts for weeks at a time.
