User Reviews for Quasense oral

I have been bleeding lightly for the last two weeks starting yesterday i started bleeding heavily this sucks i also have bad cramps. i feel weak and the pain shoots through my abdomen and back. I hate quasene.

I have had the strangest and most unpleasant experience with this drug. I started using it because I wanted fewer periods per year because of my anemia. For a year, the drug worked fine -- no spotting or other side-effects. Suddenly, 7 months ago, I started having HEAVY breakthrough bleeding with large clots and excrutiating cramps. EVERY DAY for the last 7 MONTHS, I have had to wear at least a pad, if not a pad and tampon together. I know breakthrough bleeding is a normal side-effect of extended regimen pills, but it is up to you how patient you want to be with it. I waited 7 months and just today went to get a different Rx from my doctor.Read More Read Less

I was prescribed Quasense to treat menorrhagia. I only took it for 6 weeks, because in that time, I have had a huge increase in the frequency and intensity of my migraines, I've been bleeding for 22 days (at first lightly, then heavily), and gained 8 pounds. This is much worse than my original problem of a 10 day period with 2 heavy days- in my nonprofessional opinion, this pill is NOT the answer to heavy period, especially if you are a migraine sufferer.

I've been on Quasense for about a year and a half now and I really enjoy it. There was allot of spotting towards the end of the active pills early on, but it was worth the wait. I noticed that the more diligent you are about taking them at the same time every day the less likely you are to experience spotting. It can be annoying if you miss a day (especially late into the pills) and start spotting, but so far it's been well worth it.

I was on seasonal for 1 yr then my ins switched me to this quasense i have been on it for 12 months and one week into my 2nd pack (5th month of this brand)i started to bleed i bleed for 18 days then it stopped then i got a new pack and all was fine and now on my 4th pack i am bleeding agian and im not happy about this i want to switch back

I've been using Quasense for just about a year now and I love it. I decided to switch from the Patch to this birth control because I wanted fewer periods. I had some break through spotting the first cycle (3 mo period) but after that I've been perfect. The only downside was going from once a week to taking a pill everyday. If they ever changed it to once a week I'd sign up right away! Overall very pleased and plan on sticking with it until I start a family.

I've been on this medication for over a year. I went on this to get rid of my period, I also hate my period. Well since I started the quasense I have gained 30lbs! I have been exercising and what not and I'm not losing any weight. I can deal with a period every month but I will not deal with weight gain. I did love the freedom from my period though. It's a huge inconvenience and a pain in the butt.

I have been using this for a year now. Before this I have been using other pill for 4 yrs. I like this drug and haven't had many side effects. I did have spotting for 10 days about 5 monhts ago, but that's never occured since. I've been on MANY other pills and this works for me. I'm staying with it.

I started it on a Sunday and by Monday I was itching and broke out in hives everywhere! It is not worth the pin to save $90...

WEll, sorry to say but ive only been on this birth control for 10 days... i've been having problems ever since. I have almost all of the side effects... the stomach bloating/cramps are really bad, i cant eat, i feel sick all the time, and the headaches hurt sooo bad. i get dizzy, light headed, and my eye sight seems different. i really wanted this to work, but now i dont know what to do b/c this cost so much, and i cant get re-enburst for my money to get onto something else. guess ill be using condoms until i can afford a switch. Very unhappy!Read More Read Less

Took Seasonale and Jolessa (generic brand) then switched to this generic by insurance company. Have all side effects and can't wait to get back on Jolessa or Seasonale brand. I would not reccomend taking this drug.

It was just as easy as any birth control however I would get a yeast infection while on this and a couple days after taking care of it I would get another. I switched to a different generic form and haven't had the problem at all.

Everything was going great untill my 3rd month. I started spotting alot and had crazy mood changes. Switching to the name brand asap.

I like the quasense because I have very few periods yet there is some spotting but not nearly enough to bother me. I also like it because I am able to have more freedom with my partner since I have a reliable pill. It also helps since I am very active and dont always have time to deal with a period. I would suggest it to others.

I've been using Quasense for 3 cycles (so about 9 months now) and hoping that over time the spotting would go away (like the packet said). It didn't. One month into each pack, I'd start spotting, non-stop until the pack was finished. Aside from that I've not noticed any other side effects. After reading these reviews though, it seems the brand name has better results with spotting. I'm going to ask to be switched immediately.

I started these pills about two weeks ago and now I am on my 3rd week. So far no spotting, but I do have daily light headaches and I have sudden boughts of dizziness twice. I am taking the pills because I hate my period, so I hope I don't experience long periods out of the blue.

This drug is wonderful. I love the way it works. It takes away my cramps and help with alot of my problems. I think that everone should be on it.

No spotting, no side effects. Back to normal sex drive since switching from the Nuva Ring.

i started on this not for birth control but to get rid of my periods as they make me physically ill, but I have done nothing but continuesly spot for 4 months now and i takeit the same exact time every day, I am going back to the brand name this is HORRIBLe

I have had too much spotting with period on the Quasense. I never had this problem with the regular seasonique product. I am switch back ASAP.
