[quote=Anonymous]]quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Glamour...of all things...did a great article about how often we should be having periods. Due to the fact that people breastfed for much longer, had many more pregnancies - especially ones that didn't end well plus increase child mortality - that people used to not have nearly so many periods. Therefore, it was beneficial for your health NOT to have so many. When I was still in that stage of life - I had 3 or 4 a year. Use of the pill has been shown to decrease the chances of uterine, ovarian and other types of cancer. The only one it increases is breast if you smoke or have other high risk factors. [/quote] I think that is an incorrect perspective. It is better for your body to have babies and breastfeed. A woman's body/reproductive is made by nature to get pregnant and nurse. a consequence of having babies and nursing is fewer periods, but the benefit to the body is from using it the way nature intended (birthing and nursing) [b]Not having periods due to unnatural chemical birth control is not the same and does not have the same benefits. In fact, chemical birth control harms the natural cycles of the body.[/b][/quote] DP Citation of evidence? Or is this opinion?[/quote]
