Hi Ladies,

I'm new here and wondered if anyone had any experiences with Seasonale. I am starting it next month and would love to hear any experiences with it. Loved it? Hated it? Stopped taking it?

TIA!!

See that little white box up toward the top of the page that says "find messages about"? You can use that to search for messages about Seasonale while you wait for our Seasonale users to post back!

We've had a lot of Seasonale traffic lately. Some women love it, some women don't, just like any other pill. It does require some tolerance, though, because breakthrough bleeding is more common due to the extended cycle length. But if you can get past that to see if it gets better in the second or third cycle, you might find a pill that you love!

Good luck making your decision....

Hi there,

My own personal experiences were not too favorable with Seasonale. I didn't like it and decided it wasn't for me. I had been on Yasmin 10 months previous to Seasonale and went back to that.

Seasonale made me break out, in fact the incredible monster I got from Seasonale is still on my face and it's been over a month since I've been off of it. I gained weight, was very nauseous. Those were my major complaints with Seasonale. I didn't experience any btb, which shocked the hell out of me since something like that would surely happen to me...lol...

Hope this info helps.
