Seasonale Birth Control



Recommended Posts

SO i went to my OBGYN yesterday and wanted to get on Birth Control. I wanted something where i would have less periods and lighter flow. She suggested Seasonale. I had already done some research and this is the one i was interested in. When i got my notification from Walgreens that it was ready i was shocked to see that is was $175.00! Now it is for 91 days, but still i wasn't expecting that all. Anyone else on it and pay that much or have any idea how to get it a little cheaper??? Also, would like some feedback if you like it, or not.

Have you checked Planned Parenthood, your county health department or a clinic at a land-grant university? My closest one here in Ohio is Ohio Stste, sometimes their federal subsidies help defray costs. And sometimes the drug company can help, I remember one commercial for something else keeps saying Astra Zenika may be able to help. Also Wal Mart, Target and Giant Eagle drug prices are cheaper, at least in my area.

Made more sense for us to send hubby in for the big V.

Now, he says if I get pregnant... "Lucy, you got some Splainin' to do!"

My husband has been snipped but now my uterus is out of wack. I was looking at Seasonale/Seasonique just to avoid blood transfusions!

But yeah that price sounds right if you're in the US and insurance won't cover.
As others have said, planned parenthood or something similar. Also try GoodRX which gives coupons. Literally has been a life saver for my family

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
