[quote=Anonymous]I skipped periods for decades with continuous birth control, but my gyn wanted me to stop the pill when I hit 50 because of stroke risk. Things were bad for a year or so because of adenomyosis and fibroids, and I also happened to switch gynecologists during that new year. New gyn suggested an IUD. It was my first as well. Mostly I’ve loved it. After a couple of months my periods stopped almost completely except for a day or two of spotting once every few months. My only grumble is that I still have discomfort that feels like mild period cramps much of the time. I’ll probably hang in there through menopause and hope it goes away. Doesn’t seem serious enough to go all the way to hysterectomy. But I do wish that I could live without that. [/quote]
