    Depends on what you want. Talk to your MD, they'll be able to recommend something for you better than we can.



    ETA: 
  • Uhhh...go on birth control for a couple of months?  But that requires a prescription, so you'll have to call your doctor anyway.
  • Thanks ladies. I don't want to go on birth control bc I just got off it about a year ago. We wanted a baby. But thanks I when I read it I just didn't know if it was really birth control or if it was something else.

  • Right. Didn't think of that. But could go on the pill a couple months. I was on the shot for 7 yrs and it took my period completely away. But maybe go on the pill in jan? That's a couple months before. Like I said I just didn't know if it was the same.

  • I've seen every single episode of House so I'm pretty much licensed also..

    But in all seriousness I went off of my pill a year+ ago and would pray for a period. When I got regular I started tracking my ovulation and period so you know when its coming. You're far enough away that you shouldn't be looking to totally halt your period. Just start tracking it and maybe it'll all line up for you.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: weird question : Sorry, but no.  That phrase IS offensive, and while you know I love you km, calling you ignorant and thoughtless is NOT using someone else's differences as an insult.  That's like saying calling someone insensitive who uses the F word is just as bad as using the F word.  One is a derogatory slur and a personal attack.  The other may a harsh opinion, but it's not the same by any stretch. Apples and Mac trucks, baby.

    I was going to suggest this. OP said she wanted a baby, so my thought is just keep trying. If you get pregnant, no period.

    That's impressive. When I made an appointment to talk to my doctor about BC, it took me 3 months to get in. Even when I found out I was pregnant, it took 3 weeks. But she also didn't need to see me until 8 weeks.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: weird question : So you have no advice.  Good to know.
    Posted by LingerLonger1[/QUOTE]


    All I'm saying is that if girlfriend is planning on having a kid any time soon then BC might not be the best fix to not wanting your period on your wedding day, given the issues some people have with coming off of it and trying to conceive.  It's not the end of the world to not consummate your marriage on your wedding night and I'm sure she won't be the first person to get her period on her wedding day.

    I'm biased because I had a hell of a time getting regular and wouldn't wish that on anyone who wants to get pregnant.

    /advice    Is that better Linger?

  • Linger, I'm not trying to debate you on whether or not BC is going work or tell her DON'T DO IT! IT RUINS EVERYTHING.

    Speaking from my own experience, as many other posters are, I'm saying since it is 13 months from now, it wouldn't be MY first choice.  I was on the pill for five years and got my period plenty of times I didn't want it. It's not 100% but I'm just playing the other side of the field. I never said she should change her wedding day, or that it wasn't at all important to have sex on your wedding night but mother nature is going to happen regardless.

  • I think an important factor here is that not ALL BC stops periods completely.

    OP you've done exactly what I was going to suggest- contact your doctor. Let them give you a list of options with pros/cons to each and how that may or may not affect trying to conceive.

  • Must be nice to have BC as an option. I'm allergic to it, so I can't take it. I'm never regular, so I didn't know until last month that it looks like my period will hit on my wedding day. Sigh. And we can't reschedule the honeymoon.

    Done whining now! In the end, I'm still getting married to an amazing man, so it's worth it!

    Heh, I did that. I've beeb using my BC for years, and know how to manipulate it into missing a period. It's fine to do one time. Your body won't back up abd run out your ears or anything.
