Birth Control
"I am 41 years old. I started taking minastrin at age 37 because my periods were lasting almost 10 days. My periods weren&#039;t bad (no cramps, heavy bleeding, etc) but most of those 10 days my period was light and I wore a panyliner because a tampon was irritating. But extended use of pantyliner was irritating as well.  I was also experiencing strong pms type mood swings as well.  Despite my age, my doctor put me on minastrin. I maintain a healthy weight, eat well, non smoker, no other health conditions/concerns, etc.  I have not had a period since I started taking it and it is wonderful :).  I do get moody/irritable about a week before the placebo pills are taken. But I am aware of this and &quot;check myself&quot; (am I overreacting, etc?).  "
