Suggest Treatment For Mild PCOS While On Seasonique

Hi, 34 year old woman, had been diagnosed with mild PCOS several years ago, I was not under any sort of medication since 5 years ago. used to be under Diane for around 2 years, I stopped using it as I was worried about the side effects. My current symptoms are : increased thick facial hair on chin area, hair loss, very mild occasional acne, painful periods (tolerable), exhaustion, low sex drive, 5 kilos overweight. My periods are on time. I have been recently prescribed with Seasonique however I can see that common Side effects are: freckles or darkening of facial skin, increased hair growth, loss of scalp hair; problems with contact lenses; changes in your menstrual periods, decreased sex drive. Which are all I am trying to control or avoid! Should I ask for another birth control pill? Thank you.
