You'll be fine!       05/04/06 02:49 PM Edit Reply Quote epa_ginger Reged: 02/23/05 Posts: 1158 Loc: Chicago, IL I stopped twice in college/grad school---once for financial reasons, and once because I didn't "need" it anymore. (I rarely saw my then boyfriend/now husband, and we used alternative methods). Then I went on again when we were engaged and off about 6 months after we married. I never had a problem. The very last time, it took about 3 months to become "normal" again, but normal for me is a little abnormal anyway. I didn't notice any increase in cramps or PMS either. From everything I've heard (from doctor friends) and read, it seems like if you really don't need it---you shouldn't take it. Stuff like that, while it does have it's total benefits, also has risks, just like anything. Why risk it if you don't need to? -------------------- Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
