May be: Your doctor can also prescribe a type of oral contraceptive that can eliminate your periods or reduce frequency to once a year or so. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!

Possibly : Many people with painful periods benefit from contraceptive options that reduce or eliminate menstrual cycles. The Nexplanon implant may help you. It is an excellent method of birth control.
