birth control
"I started Seasonique to cut down on periods, cramping and help with PMS. The bleeding (light) and cramping (mild) began the 2nd week I started Seasonique. Basically, I have been bleeding for (4) weeks straight (enough to have to wear a pad everyday). I called the Seasonique manufacturer and she told me to call my doctor. I had to beg my doctor to put me on Seasonique in the first place because of the good things I had heard about it. Also, I don't have insurance and had to go through a lot of red tape to get it. I guess I'll just stop taking it. Previously, my periods were getting heavier and PMS worse (I am 41). I'm not worried about getting pregnant, I just don't want to suffer. I took Loestrin 1.5/30 back in my 20's and had almost no periods and it worked great. I don't even know if it exists anymore. Now, my period is all screwed up (it used to come on the same day each month)."
