Comment:
I used Seasonale for 4 months and then quit. For the entire time I was on it, I had very heavy breakthrough bleeding w/serious clotting for about 3 weeks out of the month. With all of the cramps and breast-tenderness that came along with it, I felt like I was having my period most of the time.
