I know that I might not get my period. My question is why it matters if I don't get it?
Women take that new kind of birth control (I've been out of the birthcontrol scene for probably 15 years lol so I'm not up to date on the names) where they don't get their periods for a few months at at time.
So why should taking PM without cycling, and not getting my period, be any more detrimental to my health than if I was on a doctor's prescribed birth control where I only had my period a few times a year?
Or what about women who are on the estrogen patch (once again doctor prescribed) and only take it off every few months to have a period.
It's confusing for someone like me, who is in peri-menopause and doesn't have a regular period. It would be very difficult to cycle when I might not have a period again for a few months.
That is why I decided to try it this way.
Thanks for all the info and input.
