I have been taking the generic for Seasonale (can't rememer the name) for almost a year now. I have not had any problems, and have been loving only getting my period every three months. About a month ago, I started having some spotting that is dark brown. My doctor had said if I ever had a problem I could move my period week and stop taking the pill after 6 or 7 weeks, in order to follow what my body was doing on its own. After 2 weeks of having the brown spotting, I did that and had a period. I started back with the pills again and it is back to being brown and thick. Its kinda weird (no odor) and is like a cross between clotting and just being thick. My doctor has told me to continue taking the pill and it should go away. This is annoying, and I am wondering if anyone has every had a similar experience. Would love to hear about it.Thanks.

No. I didn't really have anything going on that has been different. Maybe a little more stress. Haven't been sleeping so well. But other then that, my life is usually routine.
