What Causes Heavy Vaginal Bleeding And Cramps While On Seasonique?

I have been taking Seasonique birth control for a couple years and as of last year I was instructed by my doctor to take it continuously with no breaks because my cramps were still very painful. I ve only had breakthrough bleeding a few times however now I just started a new pack last Saturday and I started bleeding on Friday and it is very heavy and I am having cramps too. Should I stop taking the pills or keep taking them? Also, should I try a different birth control? Is this happening because I don t allow my body to have a period?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, hormone medicine is not good for health if taken without any pathology so better avoid this, in my opinion no need to use the hormone medicine instead try some other method (Non pharma ) hormone medicine could disturb the natural cycle of menses hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
