I’ve been on seasonique for a year and a half and I have loved the fact that I only get my period 4 times a year.

The times I have tried to do without my weekly injection, I would start having spastic movements while walking that risked some very painful falls/sprains, and I would walk with a more pronounced limp which never fully recovered even when I began taking the drug a...
