Feeling periods as burden?


Some women think that having periods monthly is a burden to their life.
As they have completed their families or they don't want pregnancy, they want to get rid of periods either by hysterectomy or by other methods.
But this is not correct.
Because the gonadal hormones which are responsible for regular menstrual cycles, also help in many other functions of the body like cardiac function, bone health, neurological function etc.
Having uterus is important for gonadal function. Because if end organ is lost, ovaries function will get affected.
So having menstrual cycles is important for general health also.
