After some discussion (patch, seasonale, other brands etc etc), and after checking out message boards on ivillage regarding seasonale, I (rather bravely considering its reputation) decided to take the plunge and switch to Seasonale... A Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter period???? SIGN ME UP! Well, after 6 months I am on my second cycle of Seasonale (also my second period next week) and I couldn't be happier! Although my sex drive did increase some, sadly I think it will not return to 'normal' until I'm off the pill (which my bfriend and I won't consider until we're ready to be married and have a family in the next year or so). However, I did want to speak out amongst the sea of bad experiences with Seasonale and say that for SOME WOMEN, IT DOES WORK... And they're happy on it!
The only side effect I have experienced, if you can call it that - is my breasts swell and are tender after the 1st of the 3 month/packs on Seasonale. They stay tender and 'swollen' from the end of the first month pack to about the middle of the 3rd month/pack.
Anyhow, sorry for the long blab - just wanted to put my good experience out there for anyone considering taking it. I've had ABSOLUTELY NO BTB... and AM HAPPY HAPPY with SEASONALE!!!

It's good to have someone post about a positive experience with Seasonale! We know they are out there... it's just that we don't hear much about the good side. I hope everything continues to go well for you. Thanks for posting,
Take care,
Jill
