Birth control questions i have been taking seasonique, the birth control pill for a long time now, and i've been having a white discharge and i want to know if thats from taking the pill. i also do not have periods at all anymore, and i don't remember how

A : A white discharge can be normal - the hormones from the pill can cause your vagina to make an increased amount of lubrication and discharge. As long as you are not experiencing itching, redness, pain, change in the color of discharge or foul odor, it is probably fine. Seasonique is also one of the pills that makes you only have 4 periods a year instead of once a month. This is not harmful, but if it bothers you, then talk to your doctor about switching to a different birth control pill.
