Was wondering if anyone is on it, this is
my first time on it n I have been taking
it for 3 weeks, n prior to this I had a
lil mishap n I thought I was pregnant I
took a prego test, n now I feel like I
have some of these symptoms of being
pregnant like gaining weight but I cant
tell if it is because of the new birth
control pills

Seasonale Answer Posted: 04-07-05 11:26am
I was on seasonale for half a year...When
I first started taking the pill, I
actually dropped about 5-10 lbs initially,
but after a few weeks I went back to
normal. Towards the middle of the cycle,
I got really, really bad breast tenderness
that didn't go away until I got my period.
The second pack was even worse than the
first, breast tenderness and swelled even
worse than the first 3 months, I was
moody, I had pretty bad cramping, and I
went to the doctor who diagnosed me with
cervicitis, and I had no infection at all.
She thinks the seasonale actually
contributed to the cervicitis! But there
was a time I thought I was pregnant too,
but I wasn't, it seemed to me the
seasonale was messing me up. I since
changed to mircette and I don't seem to
have a problem at all now. So perhaps it
is the seasonale.
