I am 16 years old and i decided to go on this birth control because i have been with my boyfriend for almost a year and a half and i dont trust condoms. none of my friends were ever on this birth control so i knew nothing about it. i saw the commerical and 4 periods a year sounded good to me so i asked my doctor if i could go on it and she said yes. it was the day before i was going to go on the b...
You know why this is effective birth control? Because while you are on it you bleed constantly, are perpetually bloated, have no sex drive, and have a vagina as dry as the Sahara. If this sounds good to you, order it up!

After 9 months on this medication, I experienced severe abnormal vaginal bleeding. I could barely function for over 10 days because the bleeding was so bad. I am 47 years old.

I am 48 and was taking Seasonique in order to control my menstral cycles, which occured every 2 1/2 weeks. After about one month of taking the pill, my uterus enlarged, I had pain and discomfort in my vaginal area, I experienced frequency in urination, and I gained 5 pounds. Another odd side effect was that the inner lining of my vaginal area protruded through the opening when I experienced a bowel movement. Once I stopped taking the pill, within 48 hours, I experienced a 80 percent reduction in my symptoms. However, when my period began again, the pain was worst than ever, and then I started hemoraging and ended up in the emergency room at the hospital. Read More Read Less
