Seasonique contains the active ingredients levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol. It is a prescription combined oral contraceptive used to help prevent pregnancy.

Contraception

Seasonique is used by people who choose an oral contraceptive as their method of birth control.

When taken correctly, Seasonique helps reduce the chance of pregnancy by changing the normal hormone cycle and preventing the release of an egg from the ovary.

How Seasonique Works

Seasonique belongs to a class of medications called combined oral contraceptives (COCs).

It contains:

  • Levonorgestrel, a progestin
  • Ethinyl estradiol, an estrogen

These hormones work together mainly by preventing ovulation, which means stopping the ovaries from releasing an egg.

Seasonique also thickens cervical mucus, making it more difficult for sperm to travel through the cervix, and causes changes in the lining of the uterus.

Extended-Cycle Birth Control

Seasonique is an extended-cycle birth control pill.

A typical 91-day cycle contains:

  • 84 tablets containing levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol
  • Followed by 7 tablets containing a lower dose of ethinyl estradiol

This schedule is designed so that a scheduled withdrawal bleed generally occurs about once every 3 months, rather than every month.

Effectiveness

Seasonique is most effective when taken exactly as directed and at about the same time each day.

Missing active tablets, starting a new pack late, vomiting or severe diarrhea, or taking certain interacting medications may reduce its effectiveness.

Important Limitation

Seasonique helps prevent pregnancy, but it does not protect against HIV or other sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Barrier methods such as condoms can help reduce the risk of STI transmission.

Seasonique is taken by mouth once daily, at about the same time each day.

Choose a time that is easy to remember and take each tablet in the exact order shown in the package. Taking Seasonique consistently is important for maintaining reliable pregnancy protection.

Follow the Pack in Order

A Seasonique pack contains 91 tablets:

  • 84 tablets containing levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol
  • Followed by 7 tablets containing ethinyl estradiol only

Take one tablet every day without skipping days between packs unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you otherwise.

Take Seasonique at the Same Time Each Day

Try to take your tablet at approximately the same time every day, about 24 hours apart.

Taking Seasonique consistently helps maintain hormone levels and reduces the chance of missing a dose.

If the medication causes nausea or stomach upset, taking it after your evening meal or at bedtime may help.

Starting Seasonique

Follow the starting instructions included with your specific Seasonique package.

A common schedule is to begin on the first Sunday after your menstrual period starts. If your period begins on a Sunday, you may start Seasonique that day.

Depending on when you start, you may need to use a backup method of birth control for the first several days. Follow the package instructions or your healthcare provider’s directions carefully.

Do Not Skip Tablets

Missing active tablets can reduce the effectiveness of Seasonique and increase the chance of pregnancy.

If you miss one or more tablets, follow the missed-pill instructions included with your medication. What you should do depends on how many tablets were missed and where you are in the 91-day cycle.

Do not simply take extra tablets unless the package instructions or your healthcare provider tell you to do so.

Vomiting or Diarrhea

Vomiting or severe diarrhea may reduce how well your body absorbs the hormones in Seasonique.

If vomiting occurs soon after taking a tablet, or if severe vomiting or diarrhea continues, follow the missed-pill instructions provided with your medication.

You may need to use a backup non-hormonal birth control method, such as condoms, until Seasonique has been taken correctly again for the recommended period.

Start the Next Pack on Time

After taking all 91 tablets, begin the next Seasonique pack the very next day.

Do not leave a gap between packs.

Starting the next pack late may reduce pregnancy protection.

Take Seasonique Regularly

For the best protection against pregnancy, take Seasonique every day and follow the package instructions carefully.

If you frequently miss tablets or are unsure what to do after a missed dose, speak with your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

Smoking and Cardiovascular Risk

Smoking while taking Seasonique increases the risk of serious cardiovascular problems, including heart attack, stroke, and blood clots.

The risk increases with age and with the number of cigarettes smoked.

Seasonique should not be used by women over 35 years of age who smoke.

Blood Clots

Seasonique can increase the risk of developing blood clots.

These clots may form in the legs or lungs and can sometimes lead to serious complications.

Seasonique should not be used if you have certain conditions that greatly increase your risk of blood clots, including:

  • A current or previous deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
  • A current or previous pulmonary embolism (PE)
  • Certain inherited or acquired blood-clotting disorders
  • A history of stroke or certain heart diseases

Seek immediate medical attention if you develop sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, coughing up blood, severe leg pain or swelling, sudden weakness or numbness, or difficulty speaking.

Stroke and Heart Attack

Combined oral contraceptives such as Seasonique may increase the risk of stroke and heart attack.

The risk may be higher if you have other cardiovascular risk factors, including smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes with blood-vessel complications, or certain types of migraines.

Tell your healthcare provider about your complete medical history before starting Seasonique.

High Blood Pressure

Seasonique should not be used if you have uncontrolled high blood pressure.

If you have well-controlled high blood pressure, your healthcare provider may monitor your blood pressure more closely while you are taking Seasonique.

Contact your healthcare provider if your blood pressure increases significantly during treatment.

Migraines and Severe Headaches

Tell your healthcare provider if you have migraine headaches.

Seasonique may not be appropriate if you have migraines with certain neurological symptoms, particularly if you are over 35 years of age.

Seek prompt medical attention if you develop:

  • A new or unusually severe headache
  • Sudden vision changes
  • Difficulty speaking
  • Weakness or numbness on one side of the body
  • Other symptoms that may suggest a stroke

Breast Cancer and Other Hormone-Sensitive Cancers

Seasonique should not be used if you currently have, or previously had, certain estrogen- or progestin-sensitive cancers such as breast cancer.

Tell your healthcare provider about any personal history of breast cancer or other hormone-sensitive cancers before starting Seasonique.

Liver Problems

Seasonique should not be used by people with certain liver diseases or liver tumors.

Combined hormonal contraceptives can affect liver function and have rarely been associated with liver tumors.

Contact your healthcare provider if you develop yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, or severe upper abdominal pain.

Gallbladder Problems

Combined oral contraceptives may increase the risk of gallbladder disease in some people.

Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of gallbladder problems or develop severe or persistent upper abdominal pain.

Unexplained Vaginal Bleeding

Seasonique should not be started if you have unexplained abnormal vaginal bleeding until the cause has been evaluated.

Tell your healthcare provider about any unusual or unexplained bleeding before starting treatment.

Changes in Menstrual Bleeding

Seasonique is designed to reduce how often scheduled bleeding occurs.

Spotting or breakthrough bleeding is common, especially during the first few treatment cycles.

Contact your healthcare provider if bleeding becomes unusually heavy, continues for an extended period, or occurs after your bleeding pattern had previously become regular.

Depression and Mood Changes

Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of depression.

Some people may experience mood changes or worsening depression while taking hormonal contraceptives.

Contact your healthcare provider if you develop significant or persistent changes in mood.

Body Weight and BMI

The effectiveness of Seasonique in people with a BMI greater than 30 kg/m² has not been specifically evaluated in clinical studies.

If you have concerns about whether Seasonique is an appropriate birth control option based on your weight or BMI, discuss them with your healthcare provider.

Drug Interactions

Some medications and herbal products can reduce the effectiveness of Seasonique or increase the risk of side effects.

These may include certain:

  • Seizure medications
  • Antibiotics used for specific infections
  • Antifungal medications
  • HIV or hepatitis C medications
  • Herbal products such as St. John’s wort

Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use.

A backup birth control method may be recommended with certain interacting medications.

Pregnancy

Do not take Seasonique if you are pregnant.

Seasonique is used to prevent pregnancy and provides no benefit during an existing pregnancy.

If you think you may be pregnant, contact your healthcare provider.

Sexually Transmitted Infections

Seasonique helps prevent pregnancy, but it does not protect against HIV or other sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Barrier methods such as condoms can help reduce the risk of STI transmission.

Before Surgery or Long Periods of Inactivity

Tell your healthcare provider if you are scheduled for major surgery or expect to be unable to move around normally for an extended period.

Because prolonged immobility can increase the risk of blood clots, your healthcare provider may advise you to temporarily stop Seasonique before certain procedures.

How long does it take for Seasonique to stop your period?

Seasonique is an extended-cycle birth control pill designed to reduce how often scheduled bleeding occurs. Instead of having a withdrawal bleed every month, most users have one scheduled bleed about once every 3 months. A Seasonique pack is taken continuously for 91 days, including 84 days of tablets containing levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol, followed by 7 days of tablets containing a lower dose of ethinyl estradiol. Spotting or breakthrough bleeding may still occur, especially during the first few treatment cycles, and Seasonique does not guarantee that bleeding will stop completely.

When is the best time to start Seasonique?

Seasonique is commonly started on the first Sunday after your menstrual period begins. If your period starts on a Sunday, take the first tablet that same day. The usual schedule is to take one active tablet daily for 84 consecutive days, followed by one estrogen-only tablet daily for 7 consecutive days. After finishing all 91 tablets, start the next pack immediately without taking a break. Follow the instructions included with your specific Seasonique package, as you may need to use a backup method of birth control for the first several days depending on when you begin treatment.

Can Seasonique cause hair loss?

Hair loss has been reported with hormonal contraceptives, including Seasonique, although it is not one of the most common side effects. Hormonal changes can affect the normal hair-growth cycle, which may cause some people to notice increased shedding or thinning. Other possible skin or hair-related changes can include changes in facial skin pigmentation, increased hair growth, and changes in acne or overall skin condition. If hair loss becomes significant, continues to worsen, or concerns you, speak with your healthcare provider. Other causes of hair loss, such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, thyroid problems, or other medications, may also need to be considered.
