For the last few years, I have been having rwith my period. I will come on and won't go off, and it has gotton more painful this last year. In the past, the only way that it will stop is for me to take birth control pills. But I have moved and it was even harder to get good affordable health care.so they had to try a few birth control pills to make me stop bleeding ( from july to sept.) but finally loestrin I think , a high dose worked. but the problem is. my period hasn't come back and it has been since the middle of september! I am worried because I want children. and I feel like I will never have them and that something is really wrong with me but healthcare is expensive so have any of you experienced this just to make me feel better till I get to the doctor?

My period was so bad, they proscribed Codeine...
So I took depo-provena...the injection...to stop it.
I wasn't even having sex at the time...
so it was simply to stop my period...

Subsequently, when I didn't take the depo, I didn't
get my period for about a year, then it came back
with a vengenance.

However, I did get pregnant, and since the baby will
be getting married in September, I guess everything
is alright..

So, what I'd say, is that when you take some strong
forms of birth control your period stays a away for a
while, but eventually you get back in good nick.
