Well, seeing that our bodies were actually made to have periods every 28 days your statement is completely wrong.

So how did your labour and delivery without analgesic or assistance go for you? Because women were meant to best children, too.

Anonymous wrote: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.

I guess I've been lucky because I've never had BCP affect my libido, and I've been on them fairly steadily for the past 22 years.

Your second sentence does not follow from the first, and neither does the rest. That's the real fear-mongering.

- Infectious disease as a whole (including HIV/AIDS, lung infections, tuberculosis, diarrhoeal diseases and malaria) is the main cause of death in third world countries. 1.
- Life expectancy averages 15 years less than in the most developed countries. 2
- Half of all the cancers diagnosed in the US aren't even diagnosed until after the age when most peopld in third world countries have already died (most often, from infections). They don't live long enough to develop half the cancers we see. 3
- Plus, most people in developing countries don't have access to medical screening for cancer. Even so, the majority of the world's cancer cases are now in developing countries. 4

The majority of cancer cases — 57 percent — now occur in low- and middle-income countries. And 65 percent of cancer deaths worldwide occur in these countries, according to an analysis by the American Cancer Society.
