No Periods, Less Periods
Period suppression is currently a very hot topic. Will you (or do you already) take prescription meds to stop your period, or to have less periods a year? Why or why not?

Wouldn't dream of it.

I took the pill for one month, when I was in my early 20's, for.... acne. I reacted so bad to them that I swore I would never go near them again. I have always used condoms, ever since. I am now 38 years old. I never had any unwanted pregnancies and when I did want to get pregnant it took me a month to conceive. I didn't get my period the whole time I was breasfeeding (13 months) and felt like I had PMS the whole time!!!! It was awful. When I stopped breasfeeding I got my period 3 days later and was so happy to get it. I lost 3 kilos during that period. My periods are regular again and I look forward to getting them every month. Not that I love them or anything but they remind me of the cycle of life and I can't imagine stopping them artificially.
