Hi ladies,

I recently was diagnosed with anemia after having my blood donation rejected. The diagnosis makes sense to me considering how tired and weak I often felt. These is worsened twofold when my period starts. I have a heavy flow that requires super and super + tampons. Although I am working on my diet and taking iron supplements, I would like to know how other anemic women deal with their periods and if it’s possible to reduce my flow or if there’s a healthy way to eliminate a monthly period. I currently take a 28 day BC pack with 21 active days and 7 inactive days.
