Hello everyone
I just wanted to add something about seasonale from my personal
experience, i was on it for one full pack then decided to go off it for
similar reasons, bleeding, period pain etc.
I have been off for a few months now and have noticed that my breasts
have been radically reshaped and show no sign of returning to normal.
they did increase in size when i was on seasonale, i got big red
stretch-marks from it, and now the stretchmarks persist my breasts are
smaller then they used to be BEFORE i went on it and they are completely
flattened and droopy. its very upsetting, im not sure what to do about
it, i guess nothing,
so i really would reconsider taking this pill if youre on it or if your
planning to take it.
