or if you were given the chance to have just one, would you take it?

Well, since not being able to have babies/get pregnant, was such a GID item with we - still is to some degree - I would OBVIOUSLY need to have periods.

So the answers is a VERY clear YES

Well I am not MTF but if I were I don't know why you want them they're a nuisance!

Well, yes, THEY ARE a nuisance I'm sure... but no babies without periods.
Yet to have at least one baby of my VERY own, be worth the nuisance, and --- even there, were ALL different, eh?

Yes but I doubt I'd be too enthusiastic about it during the event. To me it would be just something that comes as part of the package deal.

No, definitely not. I'll at least take my 1 advantage I get from being trans--I have enough disadvantages as-is.

Btw the pregnancy thing doesn't matter to me because I don't want kids.  we are like, overpopulating p badly already. And I'm too immature to be a mother. 

It's not the periods I would want, it's the ability to have children that I want.

I'd like to have children, but I don't have strong feelings about wanting to carry them. Growing up around a lot of women and subsequenty living with women in my adult life, I think I'll pass on menstruation. :-)

Assuming I still couldn't have babies, yeah, I'd have 1 just to see what it's like, lolz

But unless they allow babies then nty

I can't count the amount of genetic women who've said to me - "You're so lucky not to have periods". Do you want to have a penis and testicles, despise your body, not feel like a woman, feel unlovable on a very deep fundamental level, and go through major surgery and be unable to have children? I didn't think so.

I belive this question should be kind of put in 2 pieces.

1 "if you could have your period and become pregnent, would you?"
2"if you couldn't become pregnent but still was able to experience period, would you?"
----
to be honest I see the point in people who wanna have kids, but beside the children parts there's really nothing good about periods, and no matter how I see it I dont think any woman who wouldn't like to have kids should wish for them.

why wishing for having all that pain? cause it would prove you more of a woman..?
periods dosen't do that, only ignorants use it as a lame exuse.
just my opinion.

but something ells I wonder,
Cant mtf gets some kind of periods?.
I meaning not the same as cis-women with blood, but still felling mood changings and suchs.
some mtf I talked to had mention something like that, and some said its not posible.. I really don't know what to belive?

a menstrual period? Ill pass

Hormone levels can rise and fall for both genders, it's just not very predictable or often as dramatic in cisdudes. I've seen a number of studies that tried to get more info on this, but I don't think anyone came away with very statistically significant findings (that I saw).

I guess I would have to think about it.  If it came with being able to be pregnant, a female skeleton, small hands and feet, narrow shoulders and chest cavity, etc. etc.  sure but if not then why bother?

why add more bad on top of bad?

The time hormone levels drop in transsexuals is when their last shot is wearing off or their last pill.  Beyond that there are lunar cycles.

Err.. I get all the fun without the mess. Bloating, cramping, irritability, more emotional and feel weaker, etc. All that  but no bleeding It has me a little concerned but no limbs have fallen off yet.

Does that make it Phantom Bite week for me if the guy's call it Shark Week?

So, after almost 1 year, 3 months I can tell you this:   

IT SUCKS!

But, would I give it up? Not on your life Missy!

And to be able to give birth, I'd celebrate Shark Week with a party every month!

I seem to be a minority in my monthly experience with this though
