Has anyone switched from Ortho-tricycline to Seasonale?

Question

What were your experiences? I'm switching mainly because my periods are terribly awful, even though I'm on birth control. Any side effects?

Answer 1

Yes...  actually I did.  It's really nice only having a period every 3 months.  My experiences?  I still get headaches,  and backaches and I get a little moody,  but not the actual period until the 3rd month.  I didn't notice a change in my period itself,  just less often.  No side effects for me...  but everyone is different.  Just try it,  you'll never know 'til you do.  The only drawback is the expense of paying for 3 months worth at a time,  but there is a generic.  Good Luck!
