I hate them. I have been happily period free due to the depo injection as i used to get heavy periods so despite the weight gain it causes I prefered to get rid of it , I thought I was safe. I had no periods at all.. Now I am greeted with my second one in 10 weeks , after none in 5 damn years. i hate it whyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????

Anyone else?

p.s dont lecture me on periods being natural bla bla, lol ive had two kids i get the use of periods lol i dont want them lol

Get the Mirena IUD. best decision even. Very very low hormone release and it lasts 5 years. My periods are basically nonexistent. If I do bleed it's a few drops. It's AWESOME!

I've been on a 3 month pill pack that I take back to back for about 10 years. No periods except 4 weeks when I needed to to get accurate blood work. Day before surgery I got it. Had it for like a week and a half. I wanted to murder everyone. But the mesh undies were sexy.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
