A lot of it has to do with your chemistry and your overall health. Be an informed consumer and talk with your doctor, and know your body, most importantly. Are you trying to control cramping, blood flow, regulate your cycle or just want to prevent babies? I'm still scared to try Seasonale but I really love the idea of four periods a year. I started on BC at 16 to control dysmenorreha (sp?), or very painful cramps. I stopped taking it in college because my schedule was all over the place and I couldn't remember to take it every day. One baby later, lol, I went back on the patch for a bit, but didn't like the skin irritation and the limited placement choices (having a patch on your left cheek at day six that itches like hell is not cute) and the price just didnt really work for me. Having another baby before I want to REALLY doesn't work for me, either!!
The best birth control: a screaming, crying baby.
