As if women will ever get used to hemorraging (sp?) for 3-7 days every month all the while they feel like eating 10 pounds of chocolate and taking a sledgehammer to the first person who says the wrong thing. Are there any lucky ladies on here who have finally gotten used to this? Maybe it's just me...

For the women who have horrible periods i don't think this is something they should "have to get used to". Talk to your doctor, no women should suffer from the mental and physical pain that goes along with their periods.
I found out in fact that as I aged mine only became worse. Luckily when I turned 40 I finally convinced my doctor to do a hysterectomy. I've been a completely different woman since the surgery! I find it sad that so many women have needless suffering when there are many options out there that can help.
Hopefully you and your doctor can find out the best alternatives for you.
