Guest guest Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 Hi AllI have been asked about good alternatives to promote amenorrhea. Is there anything besides continuous OCP's?The reason for the request is anticipated deployment to a region where sanitary supplies and/or disposal is not available.Another woman, working with a volunteer organization will also be in the same situation, and is requesting info for the same reason. Neither woman is sexually active. I have found the risk of spotting higher with Depo, and the Mirena IUD. I don't know if Lupron is a good choice for this situation either. I know there is a risk of spotting with OCP's, but have heard that complaint less with OCP's than the other options.Thoughts? Ideas?Thanks Sandrock, CNM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
