Buy Seasonique Online

Overview

Seasonique is a combination oral contraceptive pill that contains estrogen (ethinyl estradiol) and progestin (levonorgestrel). It is designed to prevent pregnancy and allows for fewer menstrual periods each year, often providing a more convenient option for women.

How It Works

Seasonique works by releasing hormones that prevent ovulation, thicken cervical mucus to block sperm from entering the uterus, and alter the uterine lining to reduce the likelihood of implantation. This multi-faceted approach makes Seasonique an effective contraceptive option.

Effectiveness

When taken as directed, Seasonique is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy. With typical use, the effectiveness may decrease to about 91%. Factors such as missed doses, gastrointestinal issues, and interactions with certain medications can impact its effectiveness.

Indications

Seasonique is recommended for women seeking a reliable hormonal contraceptive method with fewer menstrual cycles. It is suitable for women aged 18 and older, including those who are postpartum and not breastfeeding.

Usage Instructions

1. When to Start: Begin taking Seasonique during the first five days of your menstrual cycle for immediate contraceptive protection. If starting at another time, use backup contraception for the first seven days.
2. Daily Routine: Take one pill at the same time every day, preferably with food to minimize stomach upset.
3. Missed Dose: If you miss a dose by more than 24 hours, take it as soon as you remember. If it’s close to the time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue your regular schedule. Use backup contraception for the next 7 days.
4. Storage: Store Seasonique at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Benefits

• Convenience: Fewer menstrual periods (typically four per year).

Potential Side Effects

Common side effects may include nausea, headaches, breast tenderness, and changes in menstrual bleeding. Rare but serious side effects can include blood clots and liver issues, which require immediate medical attention.

Contraindications

• History of blood clots or thromboembolic disorders
• Liver disease
• Certain cancers (e.g., breast cancer)

Special Considerations

• Smokers: Women over 35 who smoke should consult their healthcare provider due to increased risk of cardiovascular complications.

Drug Interactions

Certain medications, including some antibiotics and anti-seizure drugs, can reduce the effectiveness of Seasonique. Always discuss potential interactions with your healthcare provider.
