I am currently taking Seasonique. I met with my OBGYN about 2 months ago because my husband and I are going to try to get pregnant. My doctor told me it was fine to stop taking the pill in the middle of a pill pack. I stopped taking it Thursday which was right in the middle of my pack; today is Sunday. I expected to have a period by now because of the abrupt cessation of taking the pill, but I have not had one yet.
Hope this helps!
While not a prevention, I have found that taking the pill at night with grapefruit juice helps.
All I know is that if you continuously take the pill, you will not have your period. This means the week that you should start your period, you would start a new pack. I skipped one month, but by the time I got through my second pack of pills, stopped taking the pill so I would have my period. I just felt so bloated and yucky. If skipping your periods is why you want to go on the pill, I suggest something like Seasonique. You only have your period every 3 months.
If you don't have sex, you won't get pregnant.
Hello, Your question is: Why do you bleed for three weeks after taking seasonique for two months? This usually occurs when the birth control pill you're currently taking is not suitable for you. By this I mean the doseage may be too high or too low or it isn't working as well as a different birth control pill would. See your Doctor about this and consider changing your birth control pill. Please note this is advice only and should not be used in place of a Doctors evaluation.
this is bad, you should definitely ask your local pharmacist or family doctor. you are supposed to get your period when you stop taking the pills for 7 days or take your sugar pills.
If you no longer want or need birth control, you can just stop your pills after you finish your next pack. Some women will begin to have normal cycles right away, others will not have periods for awhile, and others will be irregular -- especially those who had irregualr periods prior to going on the pill. You can stop taking it the the middle of the pill pack as well, but you may find that you have less unschedule bleeding if you finish the pack.
If this is your first day taking the pill, you should start the pack on the first day of your period. If you are already taking the pill, take one every day, even when you have your period. Follow the instructions that come with the pack.
I can't explain why, but it is normal. Your body is getting used to the hormone so it can take a while before they happen at the end of the pill pack.
you can start taking another pack even if you're not through with the first one you can start taking the first white pill from the new pack on the first day of your period and disregard the remaining red/brown pills that you took.
Quasense is a low-dose, monophasic, extended-cycle combination birth control pill. It's similar to Seasonale and Seasonique.
The sugar pills in your birth control pack are there to help you stay in the habit of taking a pill every day. You don't need to eat them.
I have the same question ish.... If i stopped taking dianette pack (4 days ago) mid cycle to get period and to relieve stress when do i start taking new pack? After 7 pill free days? or today, to regulate cycle and start new pack for 21 days?
