Can you call your doctor to confirm? I have not read this information, but your doctor may have a standard of practice that is best to abide by (or, know the reason behind).
The two facts that I continue to read in the literature:
- It is not medically necessary to have withdrawal bleeding while using hormonal contraceptive
- Seasonale is a birth control that you take continuously for 84 days (basically, three 28-day cycles consecutively). This type of birth control, you skip two "periods" and have a "period" at the end of the third 28-day cycle. This would follow your doctor's guidelines.
I will do some more research, to see what I find and get back to you.
