PREGNANCY PLANNING
|FF|| AND HEALTH
Mrs. Gloria Riggsbee
Dear Mrs. Riggsbee:I am in my forties and
think I am going through thechange. I have hot flashes and
sometimes I am very moody.In fact, ray husband and kidssay I am a lot crabbier than Iused to be. But I supposethat's just part of the changeand they will have to put up
with it.
What I am really writingabout is the way my monthlyperiods are getting longer in-stead of shorter. I used to flow
for about five days each time,but now the flow lasts ten daysor two weeks sometimes. Doyou think this is why I feeltired and weak most of thetime? Also, Ifeel like my heart
is pounding at times.
life, or menopause, and this us-ually can be taken care of
quite easily by a prescriptionyour dortor can give you.Nowadays, women do not have
to put up with these symptomsas they used to.
The excessive bleeding youare having, however, is not nor-mal and is probably the causefor the weakness you feel andthe pounding of your heart.The doctor will want to findout the cause for the heavyflow and correct it. Often thisis caused by one or more fi-broid tumors, which are quitecommon and are very seldomcancerous, although a Papsmear test to rule out the possi-bility of cancer should bedone. Even a fibroid tumor assmall as a marble could causethe trouble, depending on itsposition in the uterus.
So, please be sure to see adoctor at once. There is noneed for you to suffer as youare now when help is available.And think how pleased your
family will be to have youhealthy and happy again!

Dear Gloria:I always wanted to have
two children, but I had fourbefore I learned the truth
about birth control. I used togo to the drug store and buytablets and douche powdersthat were advertised for "fe-minine hygiene." After eachbaby I would try somethingnew, but; none of those pro-ducts worked.
A while back, a friend toldme about reading in yourcolumn that the things I hadbeen using for birth controlwere not any good for thatpurpose, but were just deodo-rants or disinfectants.
I think the kind of advertis-ing done for some of these pro-ducts is misleading. I hopeother young wives will readthis and not make my mis-
take--and maybe they won'thave to learn the hard way
like I did!Mrs. G.T.
Dear Mrs. G. T.:
Thank you for your letterreminding me to caution myreaders once again about these
"feminine hygiene." Do notdepend on any of them foreffective contraception. Douch-ing, with or without powders,soap, lemon juice, vinegar orwhatever, is not a good methodof birth control, as you havefound out.
