Dr Fink wrote concerning the taking of birth control pills all the time resulting in no period until menopause could be a problem over time. How much time are you talking about Dr. Fink? What types of biopses or D&Cs would be needed and how is the need for such determined? Does the same problem exist with Prempro(.625mg estrogen/2.5 mg progesterone) taken all the time?
