Oana It might be helpful to go on a monophasic pill ( all the same dose all month long) You are entitled to great libido for many years to come.There is no need to accept other side effects or a pill you do not want. You might also consider the Vaginal ring ,if it is available where you live.It is a low dose of hormones delivered thru a vaginal ring worn for 3 weeks out of 4 in most cases.The current one on the market is called Nuvaring.Let us know what you decide.JoAnn NP
