Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of a continuous combined oral contraceptive pill (CCOCP) regimen. The investigators hypothesize that there will be a decrease in the number of vaginal bleeding days in the continuous regimen compared to a traditional 21/7 regimen. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that there will be increased endometrial and ovarian suppression in the CCOCP regimen.
