Learn How SEASONIQUE Is Different From Other Birth Control Pills

How is SEASONIQUE^® different?

SEASONIQUE^® works with your body like a traditional monthly birth control pill. If you already know about birth control pills and how they work, you know that the Pill prevents you from ovulating, so your uterine lining does not need to build up and shed. SEASONIQUE^® works the same way.

What’s different with SEASONIQUE^® is that you take 1 birth control pill every day for 3 months instead of 3 weeks, so you have fewer periods than with a monthly birth control pill. Seasonique^® is safe, effective birth control that gives you 4 short, light periods a year. With Seasonique^® your period should last about 3 days. Also, your period should be as light as with a typical monthly Pill. Keep in mind you’re more likely to have bleeding and spotting between periods. This can be slight to a flow like a regular period and should decrease over time.

Is it safe?

Yes, it’s safe. SEASONIQUE^® works the same way as a regular pill, you are just extending the time between your pill periods.

Make sure to take every pill at the same time each day. It helps maximize pregnancy protection and minimize spotting between periods.

PLEASE READ IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:
While you get 4 periods a year, you’re also more likely to have bleeding or spotting between periods. This can be slight to a flow like a regular period and should decrease over time.

Like other birth control pills, SEASONIQUE^® has serious risks, which can be life threatening. They include blood clots, stroke, and heart attack. Smoking increases these risks, especially if you are over 35, so Pill users should not smoke.

Some women should not take the Pill, including women who have blood clots, certain cancers, a history of heart attack or stroke, as well as those who could be pregnant. The Pill does not protect against HIV infection or other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
