Seasonale Birth Control Medication Review

Seasonale is NOT for me.  I thought, 'How great only 4 periods a year!'  only now, even after starting a fitness program, I have gained a pound a week for every week that I have been on it.  That's 11lbs, rather disconcerting since I am trying to lose weight!  If you are wondering; I have decreased my portion sizes, eating at least 5 servings of fruit and veggies a day and included 2 servings of dairy.  I also include a minimum of 30 minutes of exercise, 4 days a week.  So, in that respect I know I am doing things right.  I have also increased mood swings.  I can cry at the drop of a hat.  I have a hair-trigger temper(when I normally don't).  I have acne that I had in highschool.  And worst of all, I have NO sex drive.  I told my husband that it wouldn't bother me if we never had sex again.  We have only been married for 4 years and previously had a very healthy sex life.  After a long discussion with my husband, I am going off all birth control and he is having a vasectomy.  I already went under the knife for an emergency C-section and now it's his turn:)
