Quasense and jolessa

I've been using Quasense for over a year without any problems...until now. Usually, my periods are 2-3 days. Yes, I'm very lucky. But for the last 2 weeks, I've been bleeding. Not spotting. F-ing bleeding. Every f-ing day. Why a drug that claims to lessen the amount of periods a year concluded to have this god-awful side effect is beyond me. Quasense needs to be taken out of the market - immediately. This is a worthless birth control pill. I've been on 3 other kinds before (Ortho-Tri, Seasonale, and Jolessa) and I've never had a problem. And I've used Quasense for over a year! You would think my body would acclimate to the drug already. This is complete BS. I'm a healthy woman and I KNOW it's not me. I fully blame Quasense, the incompetent idiots who synthesized this useless drug, and the diabolical pharmaceutical salespeople who pushed for a drug that should not have ever been released to the public. Speak up, brave women! The drug companies won't do it for you!

i took jolessa for one cycle (3 months) and loved it. now i'm on quasense and i've had brownish-red breakthrough bleeding for over two weeks during the end of month 2 and beginning of month 3. not to mention diarrhea and headaches. quasense SUCKS and i'm going to the doctor tomorrow to get on seasonale, even if it costs more.

I've been taking generics of seasonale since last november. Up until a month ago, I had taken Jolessa the whole time, but my insurance refused to cover it anymore and now I have to take Quasense. My mood swings and weight gain didn't bother me as much before, but for the past 4 weeks I've been crying over EVERYTHING. I'm so emotional and start fights and get upset over the smallest things. I'm always so tired and I wake up with horrible headaches that feel like someone's standing on my head. I find myself having cramps that I shouldn't be having, and having bowel movements after everything I eat. The whole time I was on Jolessa, I never used to spot between periods, and (thank god) haven't found that happening yet with Quasense. Should I call my doctor and try a new contraceptive method all together?

I had been on a monthly birth control pill when I was sixteen to give me a period, but now that I'm seventeen I was put on quasense, and I'm thinking about throwing the whole pack away. I have missed so much school due to severe migranes and vomiting...my skin loks awful, and it's not just my age because I have never had acne before. sometimes I get stabbing pains in my stomach randomly, and I have gained almost 10 pounds since being on it. Lemme tell you, don't take it if you can help it. me, I'm forced into taking it.

I started taking Quasense around the end of May , when I first started taking it I was perfectly fine for the first month . Well I came on my period at the end of June which I wasn't expecting because your periods are only suppose to come every three months and I had just had a period before I had started taking the pill. Since the end of June I have been on my period , it stoped for about an week and came right back. I called an clinician and they said for the first three months of the pill your body is getting use to the hormones so I want to know will it eventuall stop soon, or what is going on with my body ,and also is this normal?
