PREGNANCY PLANNING |FF|| AND HEALTH Mrs. Gloria Riggsbee Dear Mrs. Riggsbee: I am in my forties and think I am going through the change. I have hot flashes and sometimes I am very moody. In fact, ray husband and kids say I am a lot crabbier than I used to be. But I suppose that's just part of the change and they will have to put up with it. What I am really writing about is the way my monthly periods are getting longer in stead of shorter. I used to flow for about five days each time, but now the flow lasts ten days or two weeks sometimes. Do you think this is why I feel tired and weak most of the time? Also, I feel like my heart is pounding at times. Please tell me if this is nor mal for a woman going through the change of life. Mrs. B. P. Dear Mrs. B. P.: I am so glad you wrote to me about this because I can tell you right now that it is not normal for you to feel the way you do, nor it Is normal for you to flow as long as two weeks. I want you to make an appointment either at the health department or with your doctor as soon as possible and tell him all that you have told me. "Hot flashes" and moodi ness such as you describe are common complaints of women going through the change of er of Mr. and Mrs. Venore Alston. Gina Jones celebrated her fourth birthday.

Nowadays, women do not have to put up with these symptoms as they used to. The excessive bleeding you are having, however, is not nor mal and is probably the cause for the weakness you feel and the pounding of your heart. The doctor will want to find out the cause for the heavy flow and correct it. Often this is caused by one or more fi broid tumors, which are quite common and are very seldom cancerous, although a Pap smear test to rule out the possi bility of cancer should be done. Even a fibroid tumor as small as a marble could cause the trouble, depending on its position in the uterus. So, please be sure to see a doctor at once. There is no need for you to suffer as you are now when help is available. And think how pleased your family will be to have you healthy and happy again! *** Dear Gloria: I always wanted to have two children, but I had four before I learned the truth about birth control. I used to go to the drug store and buy tablets and douche powders that were advertised for "fe minine hygiene." After each baby I would try something new, but; none of those pro ducts worked. A while back, a friend told me about reading in your column that the things I had been using for birth control were not any good for that purpose, but were just deodo rants or disinfectants. I think the kind of advertis ing done for some of these pro ducts is misleading. I hope other young wives will read this and not make my mis take--and maybe they won't have to learn the hard way like I did! Mrs. G.T. Dear Mrs. G. T.: Thank you for your letter reminding me to caution my readers once again about these "feminine hygiene." Do not depend on any of them for effective contraception. Douch ing, with or without powders, soap, lemon juice, vinegar or whatever, is not a good method of birth control, as you have found out. I would like to suggest, Mrs. T., that if you and your hus band are sure that you do not want any more children, you consider a permanent method of birth control, such as having your tubes tied or your hus band having a vasectomy, which is the very simple opera tion to tie a man's tubes. Hie vasectomy can be done in a doctor's office, is painless and only takes about 15 minutes. It does not affect the man's sex life in any way (although some couples say that their sex life improves because they do not have to worry about an un- SATURDAY, MARCH 11, 1972 THE CAROLINA TIMES—i Emorywoods Garden Club Heels Wi Mrs. Lizzie M.
