Can Menstruation Be Stopped Permanently?
Hi, im under 18 but recently my period has been very annoying and always starts at the worst times. Im a lesbian and I hate kids there is no reason for me to have a period which really annoys me because why go through the pain if I dont need it? Is there any way to stop my period permanently without surgery? Also if not how much would the NovaSure procedure cost?

Hi,
No, there is no way to stop my period permanently without surgery except hormonal therapy. Hormonal therapy has long and short term side effects and I will not advise that. It changes the whole physiological and biochemical balance of the body. You can go for uterine removed surgically with ovaries preserved (to restore female sex hormones post surgery).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
