text: women: if there was a way to never have your period again, would you do it? there's a new oral contraceptive that's pending approval that would allow women to never have their period as long as they're on the pill.  but would you miss it?  do you think it's an essential part of being a woman?  or would you just as soon kiss it goodbye? even if it sucks to have your period every month, it's bad to mess with mother nature. even if the drug gets pass, is it really "safe"? it could be safe for some women but harmful for others, everyone's body is different especially concerning the menstural cycle. perhaps not having periods could lead to other health concerns, one may never know. is it worth that risk to save money of feminine products and get rid of some emotional stress for a couple of days to a week? sure there's probably many positive things that others can think of that would come out of not ever having periods, but that would just make us one more step closer to males.
