Need advice about NOT getting anymore periods - Women's Health Message Board

A few weeks ago I posted about going to get my pelvic exam done & I survived. I had the dreaded pap test done & the results are normal. I was tested for other infections, everything is normal. I did tell the dr about how I'm not getting pregnant even though I NEVER use contraceptives. She told me to wait & see what happens in a few months.

Well, the last couple of months I've been thinking about how much I hate getting my period & it really does seem I'm never going to have a baby in the near future. So I really don't see the point in having my stupid period every month & dealing with all the bad cramps, the flow, emotional upset.

Is there ANYTHING I can do to stop my periods from coming?

Hysterectomy or birth control pills with no breaks, that's about it.

So if I was to take birth control pills all the time, my periods would go away?

yes, but more than likely you will have the risk of break through bleeding .. which can sometimes can last a few days.
