Birth Control & Mood Swings

Yup, its me again, with another problem.

I was on the depo injection for 2 years, and besides the major side effects that I had (ie hairloss, MAJOR weight gain, hot flashes etc...), I also had sever pain, due to which they have now diagnosed Endo.

I went back on the birth control pill Alesse and the pain decreased immensely, but I was't having a period. My doc switched me to Ortho-Tricyclen & I began having severe migraines. Now, I am back on Alesse, and although the pain is better, I have very bad mood swings. Often I am angry & irritable for no reason at all...something that went away on the depo injection. I am afraid to change the pill since I get some relief from the Endo pain, but I HATE the mood swings. They're driving me mad!

Anyone have any suggestions? Believe me, my doc is not really open to suggestions, but I'm about ready to bug her again!

Thanx,

Nicole
