They hurt really bad and get really swollen. Oh well, hubby likes it when they are swollen I think I am going to start taking my birth control pills for several months straight, skipping the "period week" of pills, and just have my period every other month. Does anyone else do this?

I tried this once & it screwed me all up. I ended up spotting for like 2 weeks & was crappy & fatigued for an extended period of time. However, now they have a pill called seasonal where you only have your period every 3 months. I'm gonna ask my doctor about it when I go in for my annual. Anyone use this?
