What’d I do now? 
Oh, and I’m seeing red at the moment. Bright red. I will scream at anyone for any minor little thing.
You do know, flamingbananas that for some women, the “monthly” involves migraines, right? Aren’t you a migraineur?
As for me, I’m hoping that after my hysterectomy in June, when I can stop taking BC pills, the migraines at least will get better…although I’m keeping my ovaries, so maybe not entirely.
Oh, and I’m 38, and still quite perky, thanks, at a 36C.
You can safely take the pill three months consecutively, skipping periods and all that accompanies them. My doctor has me on that regimen, and I can’t even relate to period problems anymore. It’s the best thing I’ve done for myself in years. Four times a year instead of 12? Hell yes.
I tried that, Indygrrl, and it made me spot like crazy. I never made it past two months, because I figured if I was going to bleed, I might as well get it all over with at once.
Then I found out I shouldn’t be on the pill at all, since I get migraines during my periods – ONLY when I’m on the pill. So now as far as BC goes I’m in trouble, if I can’t do hormonal stuff. I really need to talk to a gyno about this. I’d let them do a hysterectomy on me if they’d do it just because I don’t want to either have periods or have babies…
Damn depo. I shouldn’t be getting my period, but here I am, spotting up a storm, and I’m not due up for my shot till the 17th. I’ve loved it so for, but WTF?
Yeah, I am a migraineur, but it doesn’t matter when my “monthly” is. My migraines come anytime, anywhere, no matter what. sigh
Indygrrl, I’ve done it before, skipped a period by starting the next pack. Works fine. Until I finish and get ready for the period. Then I have ALL my symptoms, TWICE AS BAD! Migraines from hell. :rolleyes: I’m just lucky that way, I guess…
