----------------------------------------------------------- From: liltrubin Message 3 in Discussion Dear Jamie: Back in the day (as my husband would say). Women were either pregnant and or nursing so it was not uncommon for them to go long periods of time without a period. Now that we have more control over fertility that is no longer occurring until just recently when we could control how many periods we have a year. This makes me very happy!!! There are medications that will cause you to sluff off your lining. It generally is a very high dose of Progesterone taken for 14 days. If you want to ovulate that is a whole different issue but there are meds for that too. Depends on what you are really trying to accomplish-:) Good luck with your upcoming pregnancy!!!!!!!!!! I will keep you in my prayers that you are blessed with a little one! HUGS!

Reply Reply to Sender Recommend Message 1 in Discussion From: Pink_Virgo Hi Ladies, I'm so WORRIED about my situation and hoping you can help.... I'm new to the boards but I was diagnosed with a small Prolactinoma 5 years ago. I was put on Dostinex .5mg 3 x week, everything went smoothly and I got my period within the first month. My prolactin levels dropped and I got my period regularly for 4 years.... THEN this past year I stopped taking Dostinex due to a lapse in medical insurance ( STUPID MISTAKE!) Finally, I was insured again in December and found a new Endocrinologst. I told him I haven't gotten my period in almost a YEAR!! I expressed that my husband and I wanted to start a family soon as well. My Dr. put me on 1/2 a 2.5 Bromcriptin daily. I had my blood taken in February and my levels went down slightly so my Dr. increased the dosaage to the full 2.5 mg tablet. I have been taking it religiously and I am still lactating and still NO PERIOD! Is it safe for me to have gone so long with no period? Can't my Dr. give me something to bring my period on faster? I'm becoming so nervous that I am going to be infertile. Just thinking about this makes me very emotional. My Dr. doesn't have the best bedside manner and his answers are never "clear." I hope some of you can shed some light on this and hopefully put me at ease! Thanks so much, Jamie View other groups in this category.
