I had a heavy flow, was thinking ahead to a bedridden future, and was tired of--just had to
stop– – taking progesterone birth chontrol pills to stop my period (hey have a possible side effect of multiple sclerosist!)
This brings to mind an earlier idea of mine:
At the tender age of 15, my mother had me go on birth control pills. We know that something is happening with multiple sclerosis, where women are more likely to get it, and when they are pregnant, symptoms disappear until after the child is born.
So, perhaps using birth control pharmaceuticals had an effect on my body, as well as the usage of the progesterone pills in the year or two before my MS slipped into the progressive phase.
I am recommending here, for women who are done with or not considering having a child, to look into this procedure. It is fantastic!
The only drawback, for me, has been a pretty good amount of vaginal discharge after this procedure.
But I must say: since the operation, it is Discharge City! But not to worry, I had several cloth menstrual pads left over in my possession. From the days when I also used a menstrual cup called DivaCup.
I used the 7-fold.
There is a bit of a learning curve, of course. But I found help online. A menstrual cup will give you 8 hours of freedom! You may forget that you are having your period.
Compare to a tampon, made with bleached Cotton or paper menstrual pads bought at the superstore.
A menstrual cup may seem big and scary, but remember: a baby's head is meant to pass through this opening! One_tme use cups also exists, but I have not tried those.
