Unlike yourself Lou_belle, I don't talk out my ass.
These SO called opinions of mine are based on science and studies done by doctors. If you need, I can link you. As Joanne said, when you are on something like the shot, or the pill, the uterine lining does not build up. It stops the process completely. And yes, studies show, the more periods you have, the more risk for cancer you are at. But, then I don't expect you to read any of this, you take what you want from most posts and completely twist it anyway.

I think that our cylce has a strong influence on our mentality as women.. I believe it was you that brought up the fact that the periods were "fake" as in all women on contraceptives are "not real".

They won't know the side effects until after they release the drug to test it.
Regular birth control pills, and the depo-provera shot make women get older faster. Their body's think they are pregnant all the time and bones lose their density...that would make me get old pretty fast. Avanna has been pregnant for seven years...just so that she won't get pregnant or risk getting "endoooometrian cancerrr.." This is about what the regular contraceptives do..these are "the doctors" The birth control pill usually contains 2 hormones, a synthetic estrogen and synthetic progesterone. These outside hormones turn off the woman’s ovaries so her ovaries do not make an egg and cause the mucus of the cervix to thicken to prevent sperm from entering the uterus. Bleeding on the birth control pill is not needed to prevent a pregnancy because the primary mechanism of preventing a pregnancy is to prevent an egg from being made or fertilized.    What birth control pill works best to stop the period?All birth control pills with enough progestin can shut off the ovaries while the pill is taken. The estrogen in the pill helps to control spotting or irregular bleeding. Since the pill will be taken every day without a week off then it makes sense to use the lowest dose of pill available. There is some research to suggest the longer acting progestins, norgestrel and levonorgestrel, cause less irregular bleeding with extended pill use. Each pill should have the same amount of estrogen and progestin in each pill for every day of use. This means the phasic or pill packages with many different colors of pills will make your hormone levels go up and down each week and this can cause more irregular bleeding. The current study of continuous birth control pill use was with the brand Alesse (20 mcg ethinyl estradiol and 100 mcg levonorgestrel). Levlite is identical to Alesse. Mircette, and LoEstrin 1/20 are also low estrogen dosing and could probably work.

I think this is just something that does not come without side effects like everything....
Pro or not Pro I wouldn't listen to Doctors cause they are never 100% sure of what they are given...TRUST ME I don't like to take medication only in extreme situations unless its natural but it also depends what... Seriously Girls Do you have any problemes with your body? If no, why are you even interested when your body is working just fine? its just taking risks for nothing.... Nature works that way, you can't have everything in life without a negative side...

In these times of pharmacuteical company dishonesty, medical practioners and kickbacks, contridictory medication summaries, its always good to keep in mind that a little common sense, a little balance, and little of the "why fuck with nature' kind of mentality is helpful.
I take specific meds, and the cumaltive results and fields studies are all over the map. I sincerely need them, but i know if i become completely and full entrenched in that need, then im probably gonna fuck something up further down the road. Technological advances are great in every sector, but sometimes the cliche of "things being to good to be true" can be modified and translated into the "risk vs reward" style of investigating and weighing possibilites. Nonetheless, if one is going to go ahead with using a specific drug to alleviate some form of malady or inconvenience then let the field studies ,and a few longer term results come in before jumping in. Because we all know for every drug that has had positive long term effects, theres ten other that are responsible for some seriouslly horrible side effects, permanent damage and even death. Pretty soon we are all going to have to be bio-techno-micro-chem-ologists with 10 years in med school to cut through all the disinformation of medicine!

its one of those times when im like, wtf! that makes complete sense thx yo! :) on a side note though, in the context of semantics and abstract thinking, doesnt the phrase "natural suppression" sound like a paradox?

I don't get where you guys all seem to think this is new technology. This is hardly new, it has been around for over 20 years.
Maztraz, my doctor isn't a quack, nor is my gynecologist. And if you had a medical degree, I might be willing to take your advice. So no, I don't trust you. I was given Depo as an agressive treatment for a 12lb cyst that I had developed in my ovaries. I thought I had had a stomach ache, a bad one, and it turned out a smaller cyst had ruptured. It was the most painful thing I had ever endured. I now stay on the Depo so that I don't develop more of these cysts. Which if another one ruptures could prevent me from having children if I ever decide to have them. I am aware of the cons of the drug I am on. I am aware of the bone density issue. I take the proper amount of supplements to ensure that isn't a problem. Lou_belle, until that copy and pasted excerpt, most of what you have said is your opinion on the matter. Not having my period for 7 years hasn't changed me. Well, maybe that is a lie, I have less stress. I don't have to worry about when I am getting my period, or living by a cycle, or what I might be doing when I get it. I enjoy the freedom it gives me.

Well...come on...the perfection of nature itself can never be duplicated...by MAN or wo'MAN;P Any synthetic hormone taken on a regular basis can confuse your body's natural way of treating itself. I don't think enough studies have been done, if any, showing the effect that synthetic hormones have on your body's messenging system. There is no way they can calculate the impact of sending fake neuro-transmitters into your brain. I know two people that have died from brain cancer, one at 21 and one at 30. They never came to any conclusion as to why they had big tumors growing in their heads...because DOCTORS don't know what the fuck a brain is? Abrupting your body's natural synchronization is ALWAYS a bad idea IMO.

^^ every chemical entering your body that isnt natural contributes to your demise..that is my opinion..its natural to have your period..i think that the shot and birth control is a good thing to certain ppl..if you want to have kids in the future then thats the rout you go..but if you dont have to..y go on the pill..the pill made me physco..the shot made me physco..if yer not planning on having kids get yer guts scooped out...
i dont see how the shit can be justified..yes doctors are doctors..my last doctor got charged with a few sexualy related incidents(not against me)..if hes so fuckin smart and knows so much y is he goin to jail..doctors are one part of this..your own common sence is the other..personally i think its fuckin stoopid..if you dont want your period then grow a dick

Okay don't trust me, maybe I should of said it otherwise... What I was trying to say is theres too many things out there that we don't always know the impact on humans, even if we made many studies for many years for exemple geneticaly modifiedfood we still have no idea what impact it has on humans but we know what impact it has on nature *destructive* (I know it has nothing to do with pills, but its an exemple of what science can do) So once again what I was trying to say is maiger industries might not always show the real face of the products and your doctor will not be always aware of that, does that mean he/she is dumb, NO... It simply means anyone can get caught on that as long as your a consumer just like geneticaly modified food (they stop puting GMO warning on the products).. I am not saying this to go against you or who ever takes it, I am saying we should be carfull on what we take.. ;)

Prior to this quote you were like a walking advertisment for contraceptives.. Listen lady, why on earth would you suggest these drugs to young women who are perfectly healthy? Be greatful that this drug perhaps will allow you to have children later on in life. Don't go raving about how it's more dangerous to have regular periods just because you're still alive after seven years of testing. Ur a nightmare. HAha*
