A member asked:
Why would someone take birth control to get periods?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good ?: Women who take the pill to get cycles do so to help clean out the uterus. A chronic absence of a cycle can cause a build up of tissue and even help a person develop precancerous cells in the uterus.
