I Am Worried About This, Because I Am On Seasonique, I Havent Been On It Long, Just A Month Now, But After Reading This, I Dont Think Ill Be Taking It Anymore.

I am sure most of you have a daughter, a granddaughter, a niece, a friend or a friend’s daughter… this might be worth checking out. PASS THIS ON EVEN IF YOU DON’T USE IT!!

Recently, this past week, my cousin Nicole Dishuk (age 31… a newly graduated student with a doctoral degree about to start her new career as a Doctor…) was flown into a nearby hospital, because she passed out. They found a blood clot in her neck, and immediately took her by helicopter to the ER to operate. By the time they removed the right half of her skull to relieve the pressure on her brain, the clot had spread to her brain causing severe damage. Since last Wednesday night, she was fighting for her life. They induced her into a coma to stop the blood flow and then operated 3 times.

Finally, they said there was nothing left that they could do. Multiple clots in the left side of her brain were found, the swelling wouldn’t stop and she was on the life support. She died at 4:30 that day. She leaves behind her husband, a 2-year old, Brandon and a 4-year old, Justin.

The CAUSE of DEATH they found was a birth control she was taking that allows you to only have your period 3 times a year. Doctors said it interrupts life’s menstrual cycle, and although it is FDA approved… it shouldn’t be. So to the women in my address book, I ask you to boycott this product and deal with your periods once a month, so you can live the rest of the months that life has in store for you.

Please send this to every woman you know – you may save someone’s life. Remember you have a cycle for a reason.

FYI: The name of this new birth control is Lybrel. If you go to Lybrel.com you will find a least 26 pages of information regarding this drug. The second birth control is Seasonique. If you go to Seasonique.com you will find at least 43 pages of information regarding this drug. The warning and side effects regarding both pills are horrible.

My girlfriend and I were talking about the new birth control that makes it so you only have 4 periods a year. She brought up an interesting question though: Does having less periods mean having a later menopause?

Information I’ve been able to find seems 50/50. Some sites say menopause is directly related to a lower egg count in a woman’s overies, while others state its due mostly to general aging of the overies.

Can anyone shed some light on this question?
