I’ve been on seasonique for a year and a half and I have loved the fact that I only get my period 4 times a year.

I did gain 20 lbs in the past year, when the past 4 yrs I’ve been the same weight. I’m 19 turning 20.

Sudafed relieved all the symptoms I had from a head cold. I had felt so much sinus pressure and sudafed completely got rid of it. However, I recommend you use "non drowsy" as any other form will completely knock you out! It gets the job done and doesn't let you do anything else.,
