From monodose combined pills to Slynd with endo

I was taking Qlaira for 1.5 years, but only the yellow pills with the same dose of estradiol and dienogest.
I have endometriosis, and it was my choice to try combined pills, the doctor approved.

I am very happy about having 0 pains, and no periods, as I am taking it non stop.

But I have gotten a lot of visible veins in my legs and bad cellulite on thighs, belly and even arms. Also melasma and constipation. Libido is 0, which I don't mind, it brings me less bad situationships and I am so content as a single woman. Among good things, I had no spotting, no mood swings and great productivity.

I have moved to the country where they don't sell Qlaira at all​, so it is time to change.

I will consult the doctor, but I know in advance that they would give me options of Visanna and Slynd.

I am still a bit against of visanna as I am afraid of hot flashes and even drier skin.

Has anyone had an experience of changing from monodose combined pills to Slynd ?

How was the spotting? What about libido? Is there chance to loose 2-3 kgs and smoother cellulite?

Thank you !
