I'm 10 years your senior but I have always felt like you were my big sis helping out with talking about the awkward things no one seems to want to ever talk about
I never liked having a period. So when I got on implanon and didn't have a period I was so happy. When I first got on it I was also using it as a contraceptive, but having since discovered that I am ace/aro I no longer use it for contraception. The first one I had worked great for 3 years before being replaced, the second one I had lasted 2 and a half and then I got my period. I asked my doctor to replace it early, I thought it might be an issue but he was fine with it, especially since I am mostly using it for period management rather than contraception. He did say a new implant may not get rid of my period again, but we replaced it and I haven't had a period since. I am so blessed to be able to have a doctor who understands that hormonal contraception has so many more uses other than preventing pregnancy, and that I have such easy access to any contraception I would like to try. Modern medicine is fantastic. And just to note I had no change in period/lack of period with either first or second dose of Pfizer.
I'm on my sixth implant, I had a similar experience, no periods for the first, and then again for the first year of my second - I had to have this replaced early due to the length and irregularity of my periods, but they then became more regular, but every couple of years I have either an extended period or extended gap which moves them a few weeks 🤣🤦🏼♀️ I do miss the no period times, though using the cup makes things so much simpler! ❤️
I've been on nexplanon for nearly 4 years. I haven't had a period in that time. Like you, I have horrible, painful periods. It is so nice to not have to bother with them.
I've had the nexplanon implant for NINE YEARS! i just checked the dates on my cards... I cant believe its been 9 years. I've not had a period in 9 years! My current one is due for removal or replacement next month... Im considering going a month with no implant, to see what happens lol but im nervous too!
It’s so nice to see positive comments about the nexplanon for once! All I read was horror stories about it but it’s been an absolute life saver for me!
Were you told it would work that long? When I got mine in they said it needs to be removed after 3 years. It's been 3 years now 😂 getting it taken out tomorrow morning. Don't know if I'm able to get it replaced then or if I make another appointment. Considering just being done with it, but man it's been like 2 years without a period 🙏 I don't wanna deal with it again
I didn't know you're on the asexual spectrum. I'd love a video about that! I had a baby 11 months ago and because of Breastfeeding i haven't got my period back yet. It's honestly wonderful, most of my chronic health conditions have gone or reduced and I feel like I have my life back again. Plus I'm loving being a Mum too! I think once I'm done having babies I'll be on the pill like a flash. I felt very much the same as you about it, however, since becoming pregnant I have realised that periods every month for 30+ years is actually not biologically normal either!
I had the exact same experience!! I felt like a new woman whilst (exclusively) breastfeeding….six months of next to no chronic pain, loads of energy, stable emotions etc. It was ridiculous how good I felt!! Within a month of starting to wean my girl though it all started to come back…..I was so devastated; I’d begun to wonder if somehow maybe I was just ‘better’ you know?! But I think it was those magical breastfeeding hormones doing some magic in my body. It makes me wonder if there are bigger links between hormones and chronic health than we perhaps realise? 🤷🏻♀️ I’m still bf my baby girl now at 20 months, but my periods have returned (they came back I think after about 7/8 months?) …..however they are VASTLY improved to how they were before. I was terrified that they might be worse, as so many of my Mum friends said their periods were so awful after pregnancy, but for me they are lighter, with much less cramping etc. In fact I’d go so far as to say that for the first 2-3 days, I almost feel elated / ecstatic?! It’s a real rush of happy hormones - definitely not something I had ever experienced with my periods before 😬😂🙈👎🏻 So it’s not all bad!! Just experiencing more low moods on the fortnight leading up to it, and as I said, all my chronic symptoms have returned too. Isn’t the female body a weird and wonderful (and at times super confusing 😂) thing!! 💖💖
Do you think pill would be recommended for me im scared taking medicine, can you read my comment. Im fed up with periods o luvd them so much that i hate the name periods. I had a period in june i missed july expected to come in August come aurgust i came on August 27 throught to september so light but no period on pad the came 11 12 started go darker with clot. Did you experiance any of this and is this periods life threatening im really scared and i hate it please if you have advice please send i have left a comment on thus channel you read if u like. Im thinking of pill now really dont want it.
@@sharonkour9721 Hi Sharon, I’m so sorry you’re going through all this!! 💖 I think firstly it would be best to speak with your Doctor. It sounds to me like your periods are irregular, and that could be down to any number of things - low weight, stress, diet, hormonal imbalance, or underlying conditions such as PCOS. And no, irregular periods are not life threatening, but they’re not very nice I agree!! I would definitely go and chat to your Doctor about this. They may well suggest going on the pill, but make sure you tell them all your different symptoms, and ask if you can be tested for anything that fits those symptoms. If you’re uncomfortable taking medication, tell them that - they will be able to explain any risks and benefits to you, so that you can decide for yourself. And you are still allowed to say no if it doesn’t feel like the right fit for you at this point in time. There are some easy, safe things you can try in your own time which might help to get things working more regularly too. Try reducing any stresses in your life if possible, getting enough sleep, and incorporating lots of healthy fats into your diet (fats from natural sources - so think avocados, plain nuts and seeds, natural coconut milk or yoghurt - CoYo is good! - fresh salmon; anything unprocessed) and get most of your sugar from natural sources too - fruit of course, and chocolate / treats naturally sweetened with coconut sugar, rice syrup etc. When I began to eat a more natural diet (eg. less processed goods and more whole foods that I cooked myself) my periods became more regular and I had less period pain (I still take painkillers, but don’t need so many!). Also drinking ginger tea can help with period pain 🧡 You may find after 2-3 months of lifestyle changes, that your periods begin to behave themselves a bit better! And if not, go back to your Doctor for sure. Are you Instagram? If so, check out Dr. Jolene Brighten - she’s a hormone doctor (endocrinologist) who shares lots of helpful tips about hormones, periods and how to take care of them. And check out Kimberly Snyder too - she’s a qualified nutrition expert who talks quite a lot about balancing hormones too. She’s a vegan but doesn’t require that everyone else be one too (which I appreciate!) and has lots of healthy natural food recipes on her website (plant based, if that interests you - if not that’s fine! I’m not vegan but enjoy plant based recipes from time to time ☺️). The bottom line is - you deserve to have your periods not take over your life!! And if something is wrong, you absolutely get to keep asking for help until someone works out what it is. The lifestyle changes are designed to support your body to do its job well, but there’s also absolutely no shame in going to a Dr and asking for help - that’s what they’re there for!! I hope you find some answers. Lots of love 💖💖
Hi, been following you for years. I really relate to many things, I have a tilted uterus that makes my periods painful, and I had lyme and was treated and here the doctor I went to, a world specialist said being treated with doxycycline is very important it's not easy either. . . I am sure you are doing what is right for you but you can get rid of lyme. The pill helped me too. I miss it! 🎸
I wish everyone who wants the pill could get an hour with a gynaecologist! The pill is treated like a magic bullet for period issues, spots, pms etc but you get a 10 minute appointment with little to no discussion of side effects. Synthetic hormones are great. They give us reproductive autonomy (like you said, my sister had to answer some really intrusive questions about her marriage when she wanted her implant removed) but we don’t have enough information about the very long list of potential side effects. Have you read How The Pill Changes Everything by Sarah E Hill? We’ll worth a read.
I'm so glad it's working for you. I can't help but feel envious hearing you saying how much freedom it's genuinely you! For me the pill gives you me brain tumors so I have to suffer monthly with incredible period pain and heavy bleeding.
Glad things worked out for you! Hope that you continue making videos because I just love them, could you make a line up of your cups from soft to hard that would be really helpful! Love from Holland❤️
I have had a very similar experience, though I'm on the Mirena coil. Very painful periods, very unpredictable but was worried about hormonal contraception. Honestly getting the coil was one of the best decisions for me, no bad side effects only positive with a reduced period (I get spotting around 4 times a year) and barely any cramps. 3 years on and I have nothing negative to say, life changing!
You're amazing, always genuine and instructive. Thank you always for everything you do. I'm struggling with birth control myself currently. I'm glad things are going well for you ❤️
I have endo and started taking the pill continuously over a year ago and haven't had a proper period or the pain that went with them since. I do get a little spotting from time to time but it's not painful. I'm pretty sad I don't get to use my beautiful cloth pads any more though!
I've had very similar experiences! I'm the same age and I had painful periods for years and they even seemed to get worse. I was taking a ridiculous amount of painkillers every month and I just reached the point where I'd had enough. I was hesitant to take the pill because I had tried it before (with the typical one week break) and had small side effects and it didn't help much. But this time, the doctor said I could just take it continuously and they stopped and it's amazing! Especially that the worry and anxiety around it has gone. I have the same side effects again which are mostly a bit of weight gain which I don't love. But I'm trying to accept that if this is what my body needs to be like to not be in pain every month, it's totally worth it!! Funnily enough ordered a pack of your reusable pads about a month before I went on the pill but the few times I tried them, I loved it and I'm happy I supported your business :)
Hi Charlotte i just read your comment regards periods its a great channel i feel so happy as this platform we can share this issue which we women can relate to. Im 10 year senior to you but i was 8 wen i came on. I experiance non stop bleeding for 7 years after my mum died in 2013 for 5 years i had normal periods but i changed my diet if you read my comments i had really bad periods one thing is that the doctor said women are scared to have polyps removed i think women should habe it done u get a normal period after im heavy bleeding right now but missed period in july came on late aurgust 27th still on 16th sep 2021 today all wired stuff blood not stopping. Im trying to find out was your blood on your pad or just on the tissue and did you ever place tissue higher. As before my operation for polyp i had blood mixed in urine and loads on tissue. This time hardly non on the pad and when i walk i feel dripping did you have any experience if this please. Thank you so much and i hope your a lot better now. Take care stay safe
i havnt seen this channel in i dont even know how long, i feel like this is a sign of some sort for whatever is causing my pain, im actually going in to get an ultrasound tomorrow to see if they can find anything wrong with me fingers crossed they do see i cant yeet the uterus
I am also on hormone therapy, for cyst. But getting off of sugar got rid of my cramps all processed sugar. All the inflammation it caused….beware everyone
It would be a huge break through for your channel as this topic never is really talked about in real life i have seen on TH-cam doctors talking but they just scared the hell out of me, you doing interviews on your youtube one to one and talking to people on your show about periods is great idea your youtube will be out the roof in no time its such a good platform to talk about it as its one thing all ladies have and can relate. Lots of love and goodluck to the future i hope the pill is still working for you. Thank you
I would be really happy if I didn't have my period. I take pills too, but they only regulate my period, maybe I have less inflamation or less amount, but the pain is still there. I don't have endometriosis or anything like that, but I still have really painful periods
I think how you conduct your videos and topics and ur business your so talanted and im very proude and greatful your so intelligent im greatful for people like you who even do 1% donation through your business at your age ita very rare im so so happy for you and im very greatful to you to share the period topics it makes me not feel alone. Thank you so much good look qith ur youtube channel you deserve all subscribers women girls must listen to theae topics very helpful. Thank you God bless you.
I was diagnosed with endometriosis November 2020 and had my first ablation operation this year on the 8th of November I got the marina put in the pill I was on caused my blood pressure to go skye high blood pressure norimal was the tablets I was prescribed by the doctor who diagnosed me she could have Killl me as I'm on other medication s so the marina was 100pecent my own choice .your story is similar to mine with fighting for alternative options and also in terms of getting a diagnosis since 17
I just had my tubes removed and found out I have endo on a ovary. The pain from that was terrible I can't imagine it affecting my whole uterus. I am so glad you found some relief!
Like you said, all bodies are different, but MAN I wish everyone could have the same experience when it comes to the depo Provera shot, every 3 months, and it's nothing invasive (we already get shots, and this one isn't that painful) and you barely think about it (appointments take like two seconds unless you're waiting in line), and my period has been 100% gone. I have no side effects either, meant to say.
I agree with another commenter who said it would be interesting to watch you interview ladies about their experiences with different menstrual products.
I'm thinking about doing the same. I'm so done with my period. It's come to the point that I can't even use a menstrual cup on my first 3 days cause it just won't go in. It's really painful.
I remember skipping my period whilst on the pill and it was the easiest decision I ever made. Did not miss it at all. I so so wish hormonal contraception worked for me and didn’t have the side effects it did because I would have no period again in a heartbeat. In the very least I wish good pain medication or even CBD oil was legal where I am so I can at least ignore the pain
Yes i was like oh no i havent come on my periods i thought something was wrong with me. Ive been operated ive had blood stopping tablets i took 11 medication a day to stop the bleeding before Op to remove polyop Op was successful. For 4 5 years ive been really good. But June 2021 i had normal period and July was missed period so i thought id be due in Aurgust but i came on 27th Aurgust 2021 late two weeks ago, i cake on it was barely there dots, then went on ti tissue for 5 days no blood on pad, then 7 8 day liitle lots on tiisue and feeling of leaking wen walking, ive been writing a journel on it to talk to doctor tommorow. some days better than others, its 16 days been on but not sure if you call it 16 days if it wasnt heavy at the start or begining , but its hell for me because it as if Take over my entire life. I just want to stop it forever i have had enought now. I been watching youtube videos some people stay on periods for 30 days thats a long time for a period ive on now 16 days so longer than this is very worrying for me, i was really realy young when i came on and periods were spot on normal i luvd my periods and that much i luved them i hate them so so much as im getting older its just getting worse. When i have my polyps it was 10 times worse its was constant blood stopped eating skin went all wired looked yellow and dark patches it was reallly bad and thanks to God i came out of it well but i had to change my lifestyle and diet. If you have any suggestions tips advice diet herbel teas or any simple food from the book you mentioned pleaee and if it can effect your body or other organs and is it life threatening please can you let me know on my email or reply please it would mean a lot to me. I am really scared i dint sleep at night i feel weak and exhausted i go work feeling so bad it would mean a world of help God bless you always and thank you so much for this channel you realy deserve more on TH-cam because your the only one i trust to relate with about this terriable periods. Thank you take care
Great video and information as always,I'm thinking of going on that particular pill,which is progesterone only pill,I want my periods to stop too due to them been a bother,since I got older,but it's kinda a chance u take will it work or not.
23 and me is a good way to track women's physical and mental health links. I am mainly interests in women's healthcare and improving the way that women are treated. I grew up as a bit of a Hermione Grangya.
I would like to have my own flat maybe in the future where I can live right next door to my favourite family people. Like my Mummy and Granmothers used to do. "It takes a village to raise a differently able child". Aspire to be more autisticallytwisted and honest. I have a unique pcs panic syndrome.
Thank you for this video! I wonder if you tried going to a good chiropractor. There are particular nerves in the spine responsible for period and adjustment is known to adjust the period. Acupuncture is another powerful remedy worth trying ❤️
Thank you for sharing! I am on my fourth month of birth control for endometeriosis. So far, my period is still happening and my pain is increasing. I hope to find the right formulation for me so I can stop menustrating. [Edit: Has anyone who is reading this and on the pill noticed a different scent of your genitals? I smell different now. Not unpleasant but I find it strange].
I have been having such a hard time get doctors to try and give me a real diagnosis but I fit all the signs for adeno. I would have to spend a lot of money (UShealth care) and time trying to get diagnosed. Do you think that you would have gone on the pill without an official diagnosis? Last gyno I talked to basically said that I could have endo or adeno but that it wasn't worth trying to figure it out (I asked for an ultrasound which she said would a waste of money) and that I should go on hormones.
I had ultrasounds done, the Dr read the results and said there was nothing wrong with me. I was Googling the result just recently and it sounds like adenomyosis. I really dislike us health care. I went to a different local doctor and was told nothing will work and to get a hysterectomy, I don't have money for that. So then I found an online gynecologist who prescribed drospironone, this is the easiest period of my whole life. The medicine is similar to cerrazette and is the only other progestin only pill available in the US besides norethindrone.
Thanks for the update. I’m so glad you didn’t go with Mirena, I had no health issues before having that inserted after 18 months of it inside me I got seriously ill I had it taken out, 5 yrs later was diagnosed with Lyme disease, but I still think the Mirena had a part in lowering my immune system making it impossible to fight the Lyme infection. I’m in Australia so Lyne isn’t recognised here, but thanks to alternative medicine I’m improving but still have a lot of symptoms. I would love for you to do some videos on your Lyme and what has helped u the most, what diet specifically, exercises etc. ❤️
Follow Jesus Christ, Jesus died for your sins. All of us has broken his commandments, we lied, stole, lusted( if you are masterbating you are lusting after someone) commit adultery( Jesus said if you have looked at someone with lust you committed adultery), false idols , murder( Jesus said if you hate someone you are guilty of murder). God is all holy and just, so someone has to pay for these sins, and the wages of sin is death, but there is hope in Jesus Christ. He came to earth he who is God, came as a human and died on the cross a death that we deserve. Jesus was crucified, and rose on the third day. When he got up from the grave those who will repent and trust alone in Christ sins are paid for, you must repent and turn to Christ and you will be forgiven. On judgement day if you are not in Christ, there is no forgiveness of sins and you will go to hell. Please, trust in Christ alone. Jesus Christ alone. Don’t go to hell, turn away from your sins.
I'm 10 years your senior but I have always felt like you were my big sis helping out with talking about the awkward things no one seems to want to ever talk about

I was taking a ridiculous amount of painkillers every month and I just reached the point where I'd had enough. I was hesitant to take the pill because I had tried it before (with the typical one week break) and had small side effects and it didn't help much. But this time, the doctor said I could just take it continuously and they stopped and it's amazing! Especially that the worry and anxiety around it has gone. I have the same side effects again which are mostly a bit of weight gain which I don't love. But I'm trying to accept that if this is what my body needs to be like to not be in pain every month, it's totally worth it!! Funnily enough ordered a pack of your reusable pads about a month before I went on the pill but the few times I tried them, I loved it and I'm happy I supported your business :)
Hi Charlotte i just read your comment regards periods its a great channel i feel so happy as this platform we can share this issue which we women can relate to. Im 10 year senior to you but i was 8 wen i came on. I experiance non stop bleeding for 7 years after my mum died in 2013 for 5 years i had normal periods but i changed my diet if you read my comments i had really bad periods one thing is that the doctor said women are scared to have polyps removed i think women should habe it done u get a normal period after im heavy bleeding right now but missed period in july came on late aurgust 27th still on 16th sep 2021 today all wired stuff blood not stopping. Im trying to find out was your blood on your pad or just on the tissue and did you ever place tissue higher. As before my operation for polyp i had blood mixed in urine and loads on tissue. This time hardly non on the pad and when i walk i feel dripping did you have any experience if this please. Thank you so much and i hope your a lot better now. Take care stay safe
i havnt seen this channel in i dont even know how long, i feel like this is a sign of some sort for whatever is causing my pain, im actually going in to get an ultrasound tomorrow to see if they can find anything wrong with me fingers crossed they do see i cant yeet the uterus
I am also on hormone therapy, for cyst. But getting off of sugar got rid of my cramps all processed sugar. All the inflammation it caused….beware everyone
It would be a huge break through for your channel as this topic never is really talked about in real life i have seen on TH-cam doctors talking but they just scared the hell out of me, you doing interviews on your youtube one to one and talking to people on your show about periods is great idea your youtube will be out the roof in no time its such a good platform to talk about it as its one thing all ladies have and can relate. Lots of love and goodluck to the future i hope the pill is still working for you. Thank you
I would be really happy if I didn't have my period. I take pills too, but they only regulate my period, maybe I have less inflamation or less amount, but the pain is still there. I don't have endometriosis or anything like that, but I still have really painful periods
We're you tested for endometriosis??
Ok in the nicest way possible I tough u were like 15 hahah 😂😂😭😭😭
I think how you conduct your videos and topics and ur business your so talanted and im very proude and greatful your so intelligent im greatful for people like you who even do 1% donation through your business at your age ita very rare im so so happy for you and im very greatful to you to share the period topics it makes me not feel alone. Thank you so much good look qith ur youtube channel you deserve all subscribers women girls must listen to theae topics very helpful. Thank you God bless you.
I was diagnosed with endometriosis November 2020 and had my first ablation operation this year on the 8th of November I got the marina put in the pill I was on caused my blood pressure to go skye high blood pressure norimal was the tablets I was prescribed by the doctor who diagnosed me she could have Killl me as I'm on other medication s so the marina was 100pecent my own choice .your story is similar to mine with fighting for alternative options and also in terms of getting a diagnosis since 17
Breeeeee! Omg it’s good to see you sweetie
I just had my tubes removed and found out I have endo on a ovary. The pain from that was terrible I can't imagine it affecting my whole uterus. I am so glad you found some relief!
Like you said, all bodies are different, but MAN I wish everyone could have the same experience when it comes to the depo Provera shot, every 3 months, and it's nothing invasive (we already get shots, and this one isn't that painful) and you barely think about it (appointments take like two seconds unless you're waiting in line), and my period has been 100% gone. I have no side effects either, meant to say.
I also didn't have any periods for more than 1 year
I agree with another commenter who said it would be interesting to watch you interview ladies about their experiences with different menstrual products.
I'm thinking about doing the same. I'm so done with my period. It's come to the point that I can't even use a menstrual cup on my first 3 days cause it just won't go in. It's really painful.
I remember skipping my period whilst on the pill and it was the easiest decision I ever made.
Did not miss it at all.
I so so wish hormonal contraception worked for me and didn’t have the side effects it did because I would have no period again in a heartbeat.
In the very least I wish good pain medication or even CBD oil was legal where I am so I can at least ignore the pain
nice to have a new video :)
I love my Mirena coil. Many years of my periods
No periods
Yes i was like oh no i havent come on my periods i thought something was wrong with me.
Ive been operated ive had blood stopping tablets i took 11 medication a day to stop the bleeding before Op to remove polyop Op was successful. For 4 5 years ive been really good. But June 2021 i had normal period and July was missed period so i thought id be due in Aurgust but i came on 27th Aurgust 2021 late two weeks ago, i cake on it was barely there dots, then went on ti tissue for 5 days no blood on pad, then 7 8 day liitle lots on tiisue and feeling of leaking wen walking, ive been writing a journel on it to talk to doctor tommorow. some days better than others, its 16 days been on but not sure if you call it 16 days if it wasnt heavy at the start or begining , but its hell for me because it as if Take over my entire life. I just want to stop it forever i have had enought now. I been watching youtube videos some people stay on periods for 30 days thats a long time for a period ive on now 16 days so longer than this is very worrying for me, i was really realy young when i came on and periods were spot on normal i luvd my periods and that much i luved them i hate them so so much as im getting older its just getting worse. When i have my polyps it was 10 times worse its was constant blood stopped eating skin went all wired looked yellow and dark patches it was reallly bad and thanks to God i came out of it well but i had to change my lifestyle and diet. If you have any suggestions tips advice diet herbel teas or any simple food from the book you mentioned pleaee and if it can effect your body or other organs and is it life threatening please can you let me know on my email or reply please it would mean a lot to me. I am really scared i dint sleep at night i feel weak and exhausted i go work feeling so bad it would mean a world of help God bless you always and thank you so much for this channel you realy deserve more on TH-cam because your the only one i trust to relate with about this terriable periods. Thank you take care
Great video and information as always,I'm thinking of going on that particular pill,which is progesterone only pill,I want my periods to stop too due to them been a bother,since I got older,but it's kinda a chance u take will it work or not.
Hiya, I think it would be a food idea to promote hair wraps thru ur websites

Vivid stresesz me out
I'll be ur take power and I can visit the first time in a girls space I would like to learn to move down south nearest London
Have u ever tried the depo
Thank you for this video!
I wonder if you tried going to a good chiropractor. There are particular nerves in the spine responsible for period and adjustment is known to adjust the period.
Acupuncture is another powerful remedy worth trying ❤️
Could i get acupuncture through prescription. As i dont want these devices in my body
Just curious what will happen when you decide to get pregnant? Do you just come off the pill ?
if* not when.
Thank you for sharing! I am on my fourth month of birth control for endometeriosis. So far, my period is still happening and my pain is increasing. I hope to find the right formulation for me so I can stop menustrating. [Edit: Has anyone who is reading this and on the pill noticed a different scent of your genitals? I smell different now. Not unpleasant but I find it strange].
Have period interns. They'll try out cups and give feedback.
I have been having such a hard time get doctors to try and give me a real diagnosis but I fit all the signs for adeno. I would have to spend a lot of money (UShealth care) and time trying to get diagnosed. Do you think that you would have gone on the pill without an official diagnosis? Last gyno I talked to basically said that I could have endo or adeno but that it wasn't worth trying to figure it out (I asked for an ultrasound which she said would a waste of money) and that I should go on hormones.
(I won't be going back to that doc obviously. And if I can afford I may push to get the intravag ultrasound anyway.)
I had ultrasounds done, the Dr read the results and said there was nothing wrong with me. I was Googling the result just recently and it sounds like adenomyosis. I really dislike us health care. I went to a different local doctor and was told nothing will work and to get a hysterectomy, I don't have money for that. So then I found an online gynecologist who prescribed drospironone, this is the easiest period of my whole life. The medicine is similar to cerrazette and is the only other progestin only pill available in the US besides norethindrone.
Are u not gaining weight I was on the pill a few years ago and I gained loads
Cerazette worked great for me for maybe 2 years then it messed me up, most notably mental health wise. Horrible, horrible pill.
Thanks for the update. I’m so glad you didn’t go with Mirena, I had no health issues before having that inserted after 18 months of it inside me I got seriously ill I had it taken out, 5 yrs later was diagnosed with Lyme disease, but I still think the Mirena had a part in lowering my immune system making it impossible to fight the Lyme infection. I’m in Australia so Lyne isn’t recognised here, but thanks to alternative medicine I’m improving but still have a lot of symptoms. I would love for you to do some videos on your Lyme and what has helped u the most, what diet specifically, exercises etc. ❤️
🇳🇱 libresse maandverband gewoon goed 👍
Why would you wear pantyliners daily?? It's really not good for your vulva health :/
I could easily be a woman without a period. I dont see that as a part of womenhood just a newsence.
👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Dammn
I’m done with my periods I’m going to go to the doctors to have them stop by a doctors
I think I am one of the few that didn't get any interruption on my cycle because of the vaccine.
Follow Jesus Christ, Jesus died for your sins. All of us has broken his commandments, we lied, stole, lusted( if you are masterbating you are lusting after someone) commit adultery( Jesus said if you have looked at someone with lust you committed adultery), false idols , murder( Jesus said if you hate someone you are guilty of murder). God is all holy and just, so someone has to pay for these sins, and the wages of sin is death, but there is hope in Jesus Christ. He came to earth he who is God, came as a human and died on the cross a death that we deserve. Jesus was crucified, and rose on the third day. When he got up from the grave those who will repent and trust alone in Christ sins are paid for, you must repent and turn to Christ and you will be forgiven. On judgement day if you are not in Christ, there is no forgiveness of sins and you will go to hell. Please, trust in Christ alone. Jesus Christ alone. Don’t go to hell, turn away from your sins.
