Hi Betty Boop 1, no it wasn't rambling at all! It was lots of help. I haven't ever heard of that before, about it causing problems with your bones. Must look into that a bit more before I do anything. And what I'm getting from everyone's replies, I guess, is that it's different for everybody, just like everything else. I originally went on the pill when I was 16, mainly to see if it would help with my really bad period pain, and it did. And everytime I've come off the pill, to conceive, I've had really bad period pains. So I guess with these injections, it could go either way. It could be like the pill, and stop my period pain, it could get rid of my period altogether, or it could give me some excruciating pain!! Alas, the woes of being a woman! Men have it so easy!

Anyways, it was a great help, thank you very much.

Julie
