Talking to Her About Birth Control

Talking with your partner about birth control is an important step in any relationship. The more you can get involved and show your commitment, the better partner you can be. Below you'll find some helpful tips for opening a dialogue with her.

Tip #1: Make sure she's comfortable.
Birth control is a sensitive topic, so it's important she is comfortable having the conversation. Make sure the location is appropriate and that you speak caringly and honestly.

Tip #2: Be active.
Get information about birth control, like pamphlets, brochures, and websites and show her that you are willing to get involved and be there for her.

SEASONIQUE™ tablets are indicated for the prevention of pregnancy.

Available by Prescription Only

PLEASE READ IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:
While she gets 4 periods a year, she is 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). Only condoms have been proven effective in preventing STDs.
