Chyna - have you built the bridge yet?
Given most woman tend to lose their periods, often for extended periods of time, when dieting to extreme BF levels, how does this affect pill use? Does it have the same efficacy? I know exogenous testtosterone above 600mg per week, is an effective (90%) for of contraception in men.

no,it can actually stop working! I've heard of women getting pregnant during dieting for a show because they 'thought' the pill would protect them. In fact this happened to one of my new clients 18 months ago but she didn't realise she was pregnant until AFTER the show!!

Hmmm......interesting.
So another question...do woman find thir sex drive increases or decrease as the diet and her I mean when they get real close to comp time (last 2 weeks). I find personally it is non-existent the last month before a comp as I am simply too hungry and exhausted. How say thee?

LOL, it's not a bad thing beckie. Unless you're actully trying to conceive there's no real medical reason why you need to have a period.
One less item to add to the shopping list and no PMS, what more could you wish for.
