How to make your period stop for perminate?

Answer 1

Hysterectomies will stop menstrual periods permanently, yes, but there are better ways than this to deal with the problems of heavy bleeding. One of these is menstrual supression therapy, in which a woman who is on the pill continues to take the pill during the time when she would normally bleed each month. There are women who have been able to get the number of times they have a period down to one or two a year with this treatment, and it doesn't carry anymore risks than being on regular birth control does. It takes a few months of this to stabilize most women on the therapy, but it's well worth it, and it's a great way to solve the period problem without having to permanently sacrifice one's fertility.

Another way to handle this is the Depro-Provera shots, which are given about once each quarter, and which will supress menstruation during the time they are in effect. Menstrual ablation therapy is also another way to handle this problem- in that case, it is a surgical procedure in which the lining of the uterus is scraped out, with the effect that periods become lighter and easier.

One other note, for all of the other writers who say that hysterectomies make women sterile- THEY DON'T, unless they also involve the removal of the ovaries and tubes. A woman who has ONLY her uterus removed is still fertile- it's just that she requires the help of a surrogate who has an intact uterus in order to have children. There is a process called ovum extraction, in which ova ( eggs) that are mature and ready to be fertilized are surgically removed from the ovaries of a woman who has had hysterectomy surgery. These ova are then fertilized using IVF or artificial insemination, and the resulting embryos are implanted in the uterus of a surrogate. 9 months later, a baby will be born to the surrogate which is genetically unrelated to her, because HER eggs were NOT used in the procedure. This procedure, which is a kind of embryo transfer, has been used in horses and other animals for years, and it's beginning to catch on with people now. It provides a way for women who have had to have their uteruses removed, but who still have ovaries and tubes, to have children if they want. This is NOT a cloning procedure, because the baby that results is one that carries its parents' genetic information, not that of the surrogate. The only function the surrogate serves, in this case, is to provide a place where the fertilized egg(s) can grow to maturity.

I hope this answers your question.

Answer 2

You could have a hysterectomy, but that's a major surgery that isn't done unless you have a MAJOR problem (like you're bleeding to death or you have uterine cancer).

You could have your ovaries removed (also major surgery and not performed just because you don't want a period anymore).

There are other alternatives that you can talk to your doctor about:

A surgery called ablation; this is where the lining of the uterus is cauterized so that if you're having REALLY heavy periods, then the bleeding is reduced to a much lighter flow (but it doesn't cease entirely).

You can use various methods of contraception; the shot and implant both claim to cause many women to stop menses...but this is not guaranteed in every woman, and the shot should only be used for 2-3 years.

There is a new pill being tested that causes you to have only one pill per year as well. There are also pills (progesterone only) that you can take back to back without using the placebos, but these are usually prescribed for women who are breastfeeding or cannot use estrogen for whatever reason.

Answer 3

I assume you mean 'permanently'.

The ONLY reasons any woman should have her menstrual cycle stopped permanently are:

1. Menopause, which will happen by itself, if you live long enough (anywhere from 40-60 years old is average)

and

2. SERIOUS medical conditions which cannot be addressed in any other way than by means of hysterectomy (the removal of your uterus -womb- you will be permanently STERILE as a consequence).

Examples of such serious medical conditions would be:
-Uterine cancer.
-Some cervical/ovarian/related cancers.
-Advanced or repeated Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (a sexually transmitted infection, which would probably have made you sterile in any case) leading to life-threatening internal scarring.
-Endometriosis which is so severe, and for which you have tried EVERYTHING else, including Depo-Provera (a horrible, dangerous drug, which they do not give out to just anybody), for several years, to no effect, if it is making you disabled. Depending on what country you're in, endo is treated more or less seriously. Cities in the USA treat endo as the life-destroying, agony, precursor to massive internal scarring, and emotional calamity that it is. If you live in the UK, don't get your hopes up.
- Menorrhagia - literally haemorrhaging every month, can become life-threatening. If your periods are INCREDIBLY heavy, and go on for WEEKS, you can get help.

Barring any such EXTREME medical condition, if you are otherwise reasonably healthy, younger than 40, hope to have children, or merely have somewhat heavy, or painful periods,
NO responsible physician will stop them for you. The female body NEEDS to menstruate, in order to maintain various balances. If you just think it's an inconvenience, and want it to go away, you're being a brat. Many bc pills control a lot of the painful and annoying symptoms which can sometimes accompany menstruation.

IF YOU SMOKE, DO NOT USE ORAL CONTRACEPTIVES! BAD IDEA. GOOD WAY TO DIE OF CANCER.

If it is MORE than an inconvenience: say you bleed 10 days out of every month, or the pain is literally so bad that you miss two days from work every month, by all means, see your GP. The younger you are, the less help you will receive.

The truth is, we're all taught that menstruation is 'icky', and 'dirty', and it is not the most fun time in a woman's life... but a hysterectomy at a young age can mess with your head. It is a last resort, with very good reason.

Answer 4

LOL I am DEFINITELY getting on something after this baby is born. LOL I've been pregnant for close to two years straight now because I wasn't on anything after my daughter was born. Condoms didn't work very well and occasionally broke. I personally am allergic to many things so I've also tried many things. LOL. The birth control patch is nice and you apply it once a week and remove it after 3 weeks to have a period and then put a new one on. I'm sure you're familiar with pills... I for one am interested in the one that gives you smaller periods. I've tried the nuva ring for a few days but it came out during sex and also I got a infection from it about a week after putting it in. I'm thinking about an IUD pretty strongly because the price actually when you think about it and add up $30 for pills every month for fiveyears and it adds up to $1,800 and I don;t have insurance so it's definitely going to cost around that much. The IUD is actually less expensive than the pill for me.

Answer 5

You would have to have surgery in order to remove your ovaries. No doctor will remove them unless you have a medical condition. If you were to have a hysterectomy you would no longer be able to have children. There are some birth controls that will allow you to only have 4 periods a year.

Answer 6

Why do you want to do this? Your body is a very complex thing. Your periods keep you young. The only way I know to stop your periods permanently is to have a hysterectomy. Which would put you straight into menopause hot flashes, night sweats etc. and you would lose your youth and good looks. Talk to your Doctor there may be something new on the health front that could help you. or if you are having very heavy periods with much pain a Doctor could remedy that. good luck.

Answer 7

doesn't sound too healthy for me, especially of done for convenience.

However if you take the pill you can take it continuously whih means you never come on but it is a good idea every now and then to stop taking them for a few days so that you come on.

Also several different methods of contraception (injection, implant etc) can stop or majorly lighten periods but this is different by person and never guaranteed.

If it is a medical reason i am sure a doctor will be able to give you some advice.

Answer 8

You can have a histerectomy or get a mirena IUD many women I´ve researched experienced years with no menses, as it makes your linning very thin, you can present amenorrhea. Many women are very happy with this IUD.

Also I put some links that you might find interesting, thay talk about menses as just to having babies and if you are not trying to conceive, you don´t need no period, and they also say it is not unhealthy and it increases your quality life.

Good luck! ;D

Answer 9

A hysterectomy is the only way to stop them permanently but you could try using the contraceptive called DEPO-PROVERA which is an injection you get every 3 months and in most people they have no periods.
