"I've been on LoSeasonique for about a month and one week. I take the pill every day at the same time. Haven't missed a day. I was spotting for two weeks, then I started my period. I've been on my period for a week and a half. I'm staying on it just to see if it gets better. But it is not worth only having your period every three months. This is torture. Plus I have the worst cramps of my life."

"I have take LoSeasonique for 9 months now (3 packs). At first it was great and I was all excited about 1 period every 3 months. I was wrong. This was my first birth control ever! At first I had mood swings, I'd be fine then next thing I'm angry then I'm crying over something stupid. I can handle the mood swings but the spotting was horrible. I would get my bleeding into the 5th week mark and then it would go away for a few days then come back and wouldn't stop until maybe 3 days of the sugar pills. My skin had cleared up but now when I get pimples they scar. oh and the sex life was gone of the bleeding. I stopped taking it just today and I can already feel my hormones getting crazy. "

"LoSeasonique works fine as birth control. I didn't get pregnant while on it but it didn't keep my period at bay for the 3 months as stated. For me, this pill actually worked the opposite way. I had a period for 3 weeks then nothing for 1 week rather than the other way around. And it wasn't just light spotting, I had bleeding similar to a period. I gave it a chance the first month and the second month, but after that I called it quits. I will have to try something else."

"Ive been taking this birth control for almost 6 weeks now and let me tell you, the only good thing about it is that it has helped me gain and distribute weight where I need it and made my breasts bigger. Other than that, I feel like absolute rubbish all day everyday and my job requires me to be active and on my feet, ITS HORRIBLE. I take medicine for the nausea, so thats fine. But I'm extremely tired, my body aches more than normal, the change in my mood is not okay, and I've been bleeding for over a week now, way earlier than my period should be. It started out as just spotting, but now I'm heavily bleeding and its making me very anxious. I'm gonna take the last week of pills tomorrow because this just isn't worth it. I do not recommend this pill, Definitely look for something with better ratings maybe?"

"My OBGYN switched me to this pill in hopes to reduce my menstrual migraines I suffer with every month. While I have not had any migraines, I have been bleeding for 3 weeks straight, have a horrible outbreak of acne and very bad nausea since starting this medication two months ago. At this point I think I'd rather live with the monthly migraine than be bleeding all the time and look like like I have chicken pox on my face."

"I've been on the pill for almost a month, no break through bleeding, but light cramps and headaches but not severe. I guess I can say that's good compared to some others comments but I'm getting off the pill today because I just got on it because I wanted fewer periods but I absolutely hate cramps and headaches. Hope it works for you."

"The first pack my doctor wanted me to stop after the first month to try to see what effect the medicine would have with my period and to only continue if there was no abnormalities. I followed her instructions and toward the last 2 weeks of the 3rd set, I started seeing some "color" that led to spotting. And my period took a while to start during the yellow pills, but was short and light. Now that I am on the 2nd pack toward the end, just about a week ago, I started spotting again. But this time it's heavier/more constant. Rarely worth a pantyliner or anything at all, just really annoying because I don't know if it will get heavier at any moment, stop, or stick around until the "real" period comes. And will it get worse for the next pack?"

"I am only about a week and a half into my first pack and can already feel my emotions getting out of control. I have never cried in public but today something that would have normally made me angry actually made me burst into tears. How embarrassing. I feel like I still have PMS even though there is no "flow". Besides the hormonal imbalance, I love not having to worry about my period, which was extremely abnormal; rather than carrying around spare panties, I carry my little pill container. "

"I started LoSeasonique a couple of months ago. I had a headache the first day I took it, but that went away. I have no periods, no break-through bleeding, and best of all, no pms or overeating from pms. I wish I would have started this pill years ago."

"After the birth of my son in June 2011, I started Lo Seasonique. Before the birth of my son, I was on Ortho Tri-Cyclen and loved it with no problems. I only stayed on Lo Seasonique for one month due to a flow like a heavy period on an almost every day basis. It stopped for two weeks on the second month, and started again very heavily with severe abdominal pain and cramping. The only reason I wanted to try LoSeasonique was for the "fewer periods" purposes. After trying LoSeasonique for a three months (one pack), I have discontinued the use and will be going back to Ortho Tri Cyclen!"

"I find if you were on a birth control before Loseasonique you will already have the hormones in your system and will have less side effects!"

"I've been taking LoSeasonique for a little under a month. Not enough to do a thorough review, but so far so good. I'm almost done the first pack so I will see if I get any breakthrough bleeding."

"I am on my second pack, (a week and a day has past) and I haven't had my period yet. I took a pregnancy test, it was negative, but I still am concerned about no period. "

"LoSeasonique pill made me spot constantly, I got my period the first month on it and continued spotting afterwards. I also became super irritable and depressed with mood swings"
