Annette:
I had very similar experiences on aldactone... 2 periods a month and lots of crying for silly reasons...
since it didn't abate, doc put me on finasteride 2.5 and knocked my Sprio down to 50 mg per day... much better now.
Spiro is, apparently, quite known for causing the irregular periods, but apparently not so much for the moodiness/emotional aspect according to one of my docs. For me, a high dose of Spiro made me ridiculous with all the weepiness!
