Default Irregular Cycles and Chasteberry
I wanted to post this because in my last thread about trying to conceive many people talked about irregular or lack of periods.

When I went off BC after 8 years, my cycle was thrown out of whack.

My GYN put me on Provera(hormone to bring on period) and it came. I then started taking Chasteberry (sold at most drug stores in vitamin aisle) and it regulated my cycles to a T 30 days each month. It also helps with overall uterine health. http://nccam.nih.gov/health/chasteberry/

Also, I forgot who commented on their use of the Nuva Ring. But I think it is a great birth control. I used it for years with no complaints or pregnancies and had very normal cycles.

Just thought I'd post this as an alternative to birth control for regulating your period, if you want to regulate and aren't worried about the birth side of things :O)
