I've been taking Seasonale for over a year. I had some spotting during the first couple cycles, which I know is normal. It eventually went away, but now it is back for some reason. I have about three weeks of pills left until the placebos, and I really don't want to be spotting all that time.

I thought I read somewhere that one can increase the dosage to two pills at a time for a day or two in order to control spotting. But I don't remember the specifics. For instance, I don't remember if the instructions were to do that for one day or two days, and when in the cycle I should do it. I can no longer find the article. I don't want to be doing anything dangerous.

Maybe it was a figment of my imagination. Does it sound familiar to anyone? Is temporarily upping the dosage safe?
