From the article:
This depends on the pill in question. Some of them contain the same dose of each hormone on each day, and others do not -- as I recall from my physio class, it is only the first-generation pills that were identical every day. They are not sold any more because of problems with breakthrough bleeding. For that matter, it is also not clear that maintaining identical daily hormone levels for three months would be all right, even if it were OK over 28 days.
If anyone knows more about it than that, please add. My knowledge is sufficient to detect and remove error, but not quite adequate to replace it.
Apart from that, if this sort of assertion does end up in the article, we probably ought to flag it with the template that says, "Wikipedia is not authoritative. If you need medical advice, go see a doctor." Anybody know which one that is? I found the actual Wikipedia:Medical_disclaimer, but that's a link, not an include. eritain 18:02, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
I would like to move this article to Extended cycle combined oral contraceptive pill. This name change would allow discussion of similar pills like Seasonique and Anya as well as extended use of active pills with traditionally packaged brands (off-label use). I believe covering these topics in one article will provide better information to readers than breaking it up into small articles like this one is or nonexistent ones like Seasonique (which currently redirects here) or Anya (drug).

I've tagged the history section for expansion - it currently only covers the recent approval of COCPs specifically packaged for this use. The history of extended cycle use is much longer than that - an entire book was published on this subject in 1999 (see the "Further reading" section)! The origins of extended cycle COCP use and the controversy surrounding this use deserve more coverage here. Lyrl Talk C 14:09, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

In the "History" section, I removed the discussion of Dr. Rako and Dr. Miller because it doesn't explain the history of these methods. For the same reason, I removed the discussion of the survey.
I also replaced the link to Dr. Miller's site in the "External Links" section, I'm not sure why it was removed. I removed the ARHP link because it doesn't seem to meet the WP:EL criteria of offering information that cannot be integrated into the Wikipedia article.

Since there are now non-oral combined hormonal contraceptives that may be used for extended use, it seems reasonable to move this page from Extended cycle combined oral contraceptive pill to something more general. I suggest Extended cycle combined hormonal contraceptive. Thoughts? Thanks. Zodon ( talk) 04:25, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
