hahaha lol Jo....thats so topical!!

lads dont read on (just a pre warning)

lol because im going off to costa rica soon, and i will be spending some time in the rainforest out there, they suggested you had to find a "natural" alternative to tampons and towels becuase you cant throw them away....lol honestly typing something like that into google you get so many weird weird weird methods of "managing the monthly flow"...lol and yes i did come across moon cupping.....*shudder*

lol the thing is i know someone who actually uses one.......*even bigger shudder*


lol that wasnt the worst one i came across though, they actually make tampons out of hair!!! lol i thought that was just something i saw on south park!

[.Jen.]

I got something very similar when I was back in Delft last year.

Lads... skip this bit too...

Near impossible to put in properly, the leaked something chronic, and pure and utter nastiness to take out.

Think ive still got them somewhere. Not that ill be using them again

[el_timmo]

ok, I will be the first man to admit that I read ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING, and I am utterly disgusted! I know I was warned, but if you tell me not to do it, of course I'm going to do it!

[IdRatherBeSurfing]

get your ass on the pill and skip your periods. done and done

[drowningbitbybit]

get your ass on the pill

Most girls take it as a pill, its easier than a suppository

[WooD]

She knew all us dudes wood read it. We were set up.

is this a female called Brian??

[libby]

Actually Brian said exactly what i was going to say. Just run your pills back to back with no week break. I did that for Bolivia and do it heaps anyway...

My GP once told me that you could probably get away with running them back to back all the time with no complications as long as you have a break every 6 months or so to make sure everythings still working

[drowningbitbybit]

make sure everythings still working

:shudder:

[IdRatherBeSurfing]

im actually on this pill which stops them all together happy days

[Dr Rev]

My wife was on a birth control injection that stopped them. i then read the side effects about the injection, so i had the snip, and now there back..

[drowningbitbybit]

Maybe we should put 'Contraceptive of Choice' in the members profiles?

[thaya]

i did that for 6 months (well, with injections) and they had the WORST side effects ever - and I'm not going to make everyone sick by going into it!

but I didn't think that worked for ordinary oral contraceptives cuz I used to try taking it without a break every now and again (so it didn't ruin my hols and stuff) but it didn't work (no more details needed!)

You know what - maybe we should have a "female" only section to this forum! Then again, I reckon most blokes would just read it anyway. It's their own stupid fault if they get grossed out

[libby]

I think we should make this really graphic to really put them off
