Seasonale is a monophasic pill (it has to be to prevent breakthrough bleeding). Therefore the level of hormone should be constant. When you were on Nordette, did you find that your sex drive would peak at certain times of the month, according to your change in pills?
If the level of hormone concerns you, look into the Nuva-Ring. The ring contains the lowest level of hormone of any birth control on the market. I find it effective for 1) being able to skip my period, 2) regulating my cycle otherwise, and 3) keeping my period light.
As for the expense, going to a Planned Parenthood or your county health department, and that should drastically reduce cost.
