I took my birth control pills continuosly after I discovered how much better I felt when I did not have to have one. Unfortunately I have to stop taking them all together for other medical reasons and cannot take any brth control with any hormones. This eliminates everything that would stop a period. I am dreading having to go through that again, I was the same way, bad for a few days before, awful during and then still bad for a week after. So I would pretty much have 2 awful weeks and 2 good weeks every month. That is no way to live! Any other suggestions besides the normal be careful with the diet suggestions? Any advice would be great. ALso I already use a heating pad almost every night because I feel like it helps prevent some of my problems. Do those patches really help during the day?
