I have been thinking about switching my
birth control pills from Orthocept to
Seasonale. Will changing my birth control
be liking starting from the beginning or
will it just continue the protection?

Switching from two different combined
hormone pills- like you are- will continue
your protection.
Your doc will tell you for sure, but you
will probably start the new one right
after the placebo week of the old one and
your protection will continue.
I'm not exactly sure if it's the same for
seasonale but I'm guessing it is.

Yea, i think the protection will continue.
I just switched from Junel to Microgestin
and my protection continued, and just like
the previous poster stated you will
probably just start the new bc after your
placebo week. But yes, your doctor should
confirm that with you!
