    Question

    i am really annoyed and fed up with my period and i always cry. is there anything i can take to stop them completely or have anything done to stop them? my friend said that she heard of an injection that stops them. could this maybe help? i don't want kids in my future, so having something removed wouldn't bother me.

    Answer

    This is a great conversation to have with your doctor. There are options, but all involve medication, which you have to discuss with a doctor that understands any medical issues you have. Please make an appointment.
