Or if you do it's usually far lighter than it is normally. I know someone that claimed she got her periods for three months before finding out she was 3 months along, but it turns out it was much lighter and she mistook it for a regular period.

I won't take Seasonique or such because I would feel the need to take a test every month...I like the sense of security I get with a normal regimen. But that's what I would do if I were on a pill like that and having sex...take a test halfway through the 3 months just to make sure.
