Today, my boyfriend got a new job. He'll be over the road for three weeks at a time, and home on the remaining week. Basically, I'll see him once a month. Guess which time of month it'll fall on. FML

OP here again. Wow i haven't been on this site in forever. I can't even see him every month now, I see him every few months, and of course, ALWAYS ON MY PERIOD. That's life I suppose. And no I can't do birth control to EVERYONE who said it, all kinds effected me badly! :)

Everybody has said pretty much the same thing I was thinking, period-altering birth control. I'm sorry though, that really does suck.

birth control Or... well, last time I check, vaginas aren't blocked when on period

Cap or diaphragm will block a light flow.

Don't be so weak, its natural luuuuube

He can wear a condom if he really hate the blood. But (I speak for myself) I'm not scared by that. Okay, I'm in a relationship for a long time now. But, if you really love each other, it won't be a problem to your sex life.

You can change your cycle by going off and on the pill. Talk to your doctor. Good luck!

1. Take birth control pills. 2. Only have 2-3 periods a year. 3. Profit. - Just to clear the clouds, people. There's no medical reason to have a period. Hormone pills = healthy, happy, non-PMSing women. Everybody wins!

Only specific brands cut out the periods, most of them still have placebos at the end of every pack.

Søme women have negative reactions. If my mom was on bc, she'd be constantly pmsing.

@ 63: Where are the facts that there's no need for it? It's a serious question by the way. I've read that the uterine lining builds up and is released during a period, and never having periods can lead to uterine cancer. 

Also just putting out the fact that taking the wrong form of birth control can lead to intense depression, anger, ect. I speak from experience on this one. Girls on hormones are NOT always healthy and happy.

Yeah, I've heard that it's bad if you never ever get a period, but then if your flow is too long and heavy, then that's bad too.

#213, what #63 meant is that when on the pill your period is completely artificial, it's just there to remind women that their body is still "working" properly and that they are not pregnant (even though there are rare cases of women still having their period while pregnant, nothing to do with the pill though). So yes, you can carry on with your pill without taking the placebo ones, or not waiting for a week. It's actually recommended for some affections such as endometriosis.

Get a new boyfriend or quit your job and travel with him.

Don't worry, he won't have a job very long. He's a freaking TRUCK DRIVER for Christ's sake!!!
