I am 28 and have been on Alesse for almost 3 years and just now realizing my depression, raging hot flashes, crying spells, tiredness, general crabiness and a host of other negative traits may be due to my B/C. I am going to my doctor on Friday to see about changing B/C and also testing for primary ovarian insufficiency as I have never had a regular cycle since I started menstruating when I was 17. I was on Yasmin for a short while before Alesse which gave me severe paranoid episodes so I switched to Alesse. The current changes came on so gradually I didn't notice them. The hot flashes have pushed me over the edge so that finally caught my attention. I hope to find some relief somehow, and some answers.
