1 Lybrel is a no-period birth control pill. 2  It is the first low dose birth control pill designed to be taken 365 days, without a placebo or pill-free interval. 3  Seasonale has 12 weeks of estrogen/progestin pills, followed by 7 days of no-hormone pills -- which means 4 menstrual periods a year.
Usually they are taken for 5 to 6 days in the perimenstrual period, which begins two days prior to menstrual flow. For some women, taking a combination birth control pill -- which consists of both estrogen and progestin-- can reduce the frequency of menstrual migraines. The theory behind using combination birth control pills is that the pills prevent any significant estrogen drop from occurring in your cycle.
