    My doc said there is even evident that having fewer periods puts you at less risk for some cancers. It used to be that women had more pregnancies on average then today so they had fewer periods before menopause, but as we stopped having hoards of children, we have more periods. Fewer may actually be better for us
    Do you have a source for this, all I find when I search is symptoms of cancer related to periods and that is lowkey terrifying because I’ve been avoiding birth control cause of the side effects and risks but don’t want any children 🥺

    Over the decades, I have tried many forms of birth control and by far my favorite form is being monogamous with a man who has had a vasectomy :)

    Yep, I've tried a bunch of methods and this is also my favorite.
