I have heard of the non-period from taking the bc pills but, yes, I worried about what it would do to me. I've been regular {even with the all of the crap that comes with it} and don't want to jack it up.
But, I am older {I don't know when the women in our family hit menopause, no one is quite chatty about it...I guess it makes them feel old? So wrong...} and finished having kids. I don't have to use anything at this point. The Hubster took care of that. So, like your issue of the boobage my reason would solely be for ending the monthlies. And, is that enough to mess with my body? Especially when I've had no problems with it and really waiting to see what will happen. {and, I'm probably too old anyways? Especially if I've never been on the pill?}
Does anyone use Deprovera? I know someone who did and found out, after a few years, it wasn't good.

Ugh. I found my first gray hairs when I was 22. I had just gone through a bout of pneumonia with my son who was only about 5 months at the time. One of the most scary times of my life.
I was never one of those {like my sisters} who colored their hair for fun. Too much trouble. So, it really does have to get to me to make me color my hair. I let it go...until I look at myself and say 'Oh my gawd, do not leave the house again until you fix that!!!!' It really makes a difference to fix the roots. When you finally do it {after having gray} you'll feel great. So, to me, it does make a difference to do it. Even though I hate it.
