Mercilon, anyone had any experience?

I visited the doctors today to discuss changing contraception, I am currently on microgynon and I am sure it has been causing me to become a very miserable, grumpy person with no sex drive.
Anyway the Dr thinks for now the best choice is to change which pill I'm taking to Mercilon, then review the situation in 3/4 months time.
Has anyone had any experience of this pill?

Thanks

I switched from microgynon to mercilon due to headaches, no complaints!

Thanks for your reply! I have been recently getting headaches more and more, which I thought was odd as never suffered before, so hopefully those will go too!

I used to take Mercilon and never had any problems! I think everyone reacts differently to different types of contraception, so hang in there, hope you feel better soon.
