When does one stop having a menstrual cycle? I am 61 years old and still using the Ordette family planning pill, which regulates my cycle monthly.

Whilst you are still using oestrogen based contraception your cycle will, most likely, continue to happen; you should go and speak to your doctor and talk about other contraception methods which will allow your menopause to occur.

Do you have questions? Please feel free to ask.
