A member asked:
Is it normal to get your period while on seasonique when on the non- placebo days. just started this about 3 wks ago. previously on depo. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not a period: What you describe is probably not a menstrual period but instead "intermittent breakthrough bleeding" which unfortunately is not unusual nor uncommon particularly during the first few months of Seasonique. No cause for alarm if you are taking your pills regularly and your health has remained otherwise normal. If you are very concerned or bleeding is too heavy or too prolonged, consult your MD.
