    Default Mini Pill

    Hey guys

    Just a question really, have been on and off the mini pill the last year. Am very sensitive to hormones, had one shot of depo n had no periods for 18months

    Anyway havent had the minipill for ages now, n still no period.. not complaining however should I get this checked out or just accept it as a good side effect n just ignore things?? Not sexually active atm so that isnt an issue just wanting to make sure its normal n I shouldnt be alarmed??

    Thanks

    yeah, you should be super alarmed. the only thing that stops a women's period is if you genetically have alot of testosterone AND you exercise like a tomboy on crack.

    Get to your gyno very soon. Bonn is right about alot of exercise which can cause amenorrhea. Alot of hardcore athletes get it such as gymnasts. Dont know too much about the testosterone myself. Just make sure youre reproductive organs are all good with a checkup.

    i had the WORST experience with the depo shot...no period at all for several months, then when i finally had a period it lasted over 2 months STRAIGHT!!! as soon as i went off the shot though, my period got back to normal. ive heard the gyno can give u a pill to make u start ur period, but get it checked either way because that cant be healthy.

    I had one shot depo.. had awful migraines etc and was in an awful way for 6weeks after, then didnt have a period for 18months, been on the mini pill on and off, just sometimes get a little pain but never come on even when I feel like I am going to.

    Depo was just awful.. would never recommend it.. was hell

    I will get it checked.. I guess it could be crohns related n lack of food etc.. stress etc.. not sure.. my doctor didnt seem that worried last time i mentioned it to him just ignored me pretty much!

    I've been on Depo for three years. I haven't had a period for three years.

    Stress can miss periods. Birth control can miss periods. Hell, your body could just even feel like not having one (happens but rare)!

    yep, testosterone in high amounts is the male hormone that is also found in females, which helps us with muscle building stuff, women with high amounts put on heavy muscle easily...like the wrestler China and the female bodybuilders that look like dudes in bikinis. if you work out alot than and your testosterone level can kind-of "out do" your female hormones. When i was in basic training, one girl, was really athletic, she was built, but not bulky and she once didn't have a period for six months. when she went to the gyn he told her about the testosterone level stuff, plus i read it in the fitness rx for women magazine (the best might i add) and with my course study for my fitness training certification. i had five jobs in the military-chef/fitness instructor/hotel management/mortuary/recreation. it was called the services squadron, we're the "cradle to grave" unit that made sure all troops were fed healthy food-were --fit as a fiddle--had shelter/tents to rest in--had mentally and physically stimulating activities (so we wouldn't go psycho overseas from pressure)--and when soldiers die, we send them home to their families. very sad time thanks to good ole WB. BUT IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ON ANY OF THOSE CAREER FIELDS, I CAN TELL YOU WHAT I KNOW...I GOT THE THIRD HIGHEST SCORE IN THE AIRFORCE FOR MY CAREER FIELD!!

    Yes, the period can be stopped for those reasons... but not ONLY those reasons, is the thing.

    Hahaha, hello! And I love my Depo, but the $100 every three months is annoing, so I'm going for the $300 or 3 years of IMPLANT in 15 days... woo.

    I tried the IUD... nobody will give it to me because I haven't had kids. Like HELLO that's what they PREVENT. "Come back when you've had kids." But I don't want any EVER, which is the point of the IUD.

    Oh well. >_>

    They are the same here, no implants without having child full term first, too worried about damage..not worth getting them in trouble if something goes tits up!
