Sorry, let me clarify. I'm not post menopausal. I'm 25 but don't use any bc because my husband got a vasectomy after our 2nd baby. It wouldn't bother me to not have a period but as far as I know, it wouldn't be good health wise. So my goal is to take PM for as many days a month as I can without skipping periods.

You don't need your period if you aren't trying to get pregnant. It's just to prepare your body for a baby pretty much. It's why they make birth control meant to stop your body from having your period, you don't need it. It's not bad for you to not have your period. But if you want your period you need to still do the half cycle so you don't mess up the hormones that will allow you to get your period on time.

I do wonder if this is fact. I'm curious what people's opinions are on this. We all should know by now that Western medicine/doctors does not equate to truth more often than not.
