    Unless you are 16 why is any of this TOM stuff news? I'm a woman I don't want to hear it.

    Sorry but really.

    I didn't have TOM for 8 years. I had a tumor on my pituitary gland that produced large amounts of prolactin in my blood. Just recently started taking meds to regulate prolactin, so now IT"S BAAAACCCKKK!!

    dang, all of you saying, "it will pass!" - lucky YOUS!

    I've never not had knock me down pain. Too scared of BC for weight gain. The only thing that even touches the pain is ibuprofin. Was prescribed darvocet once and it did NOTHING.

    Hang in there, hopefully you'll find something that helps!
    been on it for 5 years due to ovarian cysts. Never gained a pound unless I was eating junk food all the time!

    awesome!

    also.

    I think its funny that people are so squeamish about this subject.

    BLOOD!

    Squeemish? No.
    I just think its re-freaking-diculous that we have to muliple threads on what has been a fact of life for most of us women....for atleast 10 years.

    I just wanted to start an argument :)

    I was on the depo for 3 years and gained about 30 lbs but that was because my drinking increased and my activity decreased.. When I started working out and being healthier, the weight came off.. So as much as I blamed the depo for weight gain, it wasn't completely it's fault.

    Sorry you are dealing with it, they say excercise helps the cramps.

    It's tougher for some than others. Not everyone has simple cycles.

    I suspect that, but I was being sarcastic. You should have seen my rant a few months ago about this.

    You have TOM.

    You also have multiple orgasms.

    Sounds like a fair trade to me. :)
